Explore continental knitting in a relaxed, small-group setting at The Yarny Way.

Continental knitting involves tensioning the yarn in the left hand, which often feels especially natural for crocheters who are already comfortable managing yarn with the left hand. English-style “throwers” are also warmly welcome and may find continental knitting helps improve efficiency, rhythm, and ergonomics.

Each Saturday session focuses on a different skill area, so you are welcome to attend just one session or continue throughout the month.

Session Topics

Session 1 — Yarn Tension + Knit Stitch
Learn how to hold and tension yarn comfortably in the left hand while building confidence with the continental knit stitch.

Session 2 — Purling + Ribbing
Practice smoother transitions between knit and purl stitches while working common ribbing patterns.

Session 3 — Speed, Efficiency, + Smoother Transitions
Refine movement, reduce hand strain, and build consistency across rows and stitch patterns.

Session 4 — Continental Knitting in the Round + Troubleshooting
Apply continental knitting techniques to circular knitting while addressing common challenges and questions.
