Instructor: Kate Hubbs

Kate has been knitting for 60+ years after learning to knit at the age of 5. Her grandmother taught her during a time when home economics were actually called that instead of the “life skills” which her children learned. She was so excited to learn to knit that her first show and tell in kindergarten was her knitting. Over the years she has honed her skills to include sweaters, socks, lace and the often feared cables.
