Chunky Blanket Workshop

Join us for a cozy and creative Chunky Blanket Workshop where you’ll learn how to make your own chunky knit blanket using finger knitting—no needles required! This beginner-friendly class will guide you step-by-step through the process, making it easy and fun for anyone to participate, even if you’ve never knitted before.

All supplies are included, and you’ll leave with a beautiful handmade blanket you created yourself. Yarn must be chosen in advance, and sizes may vary slightly due to knitting tension.

Choose between a large blanket (approx. 37 x 60) or a lap size blanket (approx. 34 x 47). If you are unable to attend, a tutorial video and supplies will be provided. Spots are limited, so be sure to reserve your place early.
