For this class you will need: at least one color of yarn, scissors for the single cut at the finish (with grown up assistance!) Additional colors are welcome and optional! Pro tip: the fluffier the yarn, the fluffier the stitches.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Parental guidance is required for the use of scissors. One small snip at the end is the only time they will be used. Learners may need some assistance making the initial knot, and getting started with the weaving technique.
