Abstract

Learn to Knit Continental Style is a multi-session individual lesson series designed to break down the basic skills needed to knit a variety of projects. The core skills in this series are divided into 4 lessons that discuss getting started, the knit stitch, purl stitches, increasing, decreasing, working in the round, and finishing. The lessons may be scheduled as you advance at your own pace. No experience with knitting is necessary.

This lesson series is designed for the absolute beginner, however the instructor may customize the content and pace of the material for those students looking to enroll in this series as a refresher course. This course is also appropriate for people who currently knit using the English/Throwing technique, who want to learn to knit Continental Style. Beginners must be able to demonstrate mastery of each skill in order for the first 4 lessons. Supplemental topics that build on these fundamental skills may be selected as desired upon successful completion of Lessons 1-4. 

The 3rd lesson starts with a review of skills learned in Lesson 2 and introduces increasing, and decreasing. Increases and decreases are important skills to master because many patterns for beginners require shaping such as, hats, mittens, garments, etc. Homework following Lesson 3 is to complete the project started in the lesson. Lesson 4 may be scheduled upon successful completion of the homework from Lesson 3.
