Fiberside chat with Carson Demers

Years ago I took a class with Carson and it REALLY changed my knitting. 

I signed up SUPER late at Knit Fit (a local fiber festival that sadly is no longer) and the only class left was Carson's. I wasn't familiar with him, and the class was called something about the ergonomics of knitting (which did NOT sound like a thrilling class) but I signed up because I was determined to attend a class!!

The class blew my socks off!! He is a master of giving information on how to keep our most important tools (OUR HANDS) working for a long time!!! Be sure to catch this amazing Fireside Chat with Carson...you won't be sorry!!

When you register, be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom of the list and pick A Little Knitty so we get the credit for sending you!!!

Ok...Here's the real information on the chat...

Knitting New Year Resolutions
Here we are, fortunate to be at the start of a new year! How did you grow as a knitter in 2023? Do you have a plan for growth and knitting sustainability in the New Year? One thing Carson Demers is fairly sure of, is that none of us is resolved to stop knitting. Let’s chat about setting achievable goals for this to be a year of growth toward improving our technique, and personal sustainability. Join Carson to set yourself up for a comfortable New Year of knitting!

Carson Demers is a physical therapist with 30-years’ experience. He has been knitting even longer.

Ergonomics, especially as it relates to textile arts has been his passion ever since. Carson has written and published the preeminent book on ergonomics for knitters and fiber enthusiasts, Knitting Comfortably: The Ergonomics of Handknitting which is available at www.ergoiknit.com and yarn shops around the world. He has taught classes to knitters, crocheters, spinners, weavers and other textile enthusiasts for 15-years at major knitting events, fiber retreats and festivals, yarn shops, guilds throughout North America.
