    To help you identify the classes that best fit your skill level, we'll start to include these difficulty icons with the class descriptions:
    Beginner requires no previous experience; you'll be learning how to use the basic tools to practice the basic techniques.
    Advanced Beginner requires knowledge of and experience with the basic tools and skills. For knitting you'll need to know knitting, purling, increases, decreases, casting on, and binding off. For beading you'll need to know how to identify and use chain-nose pliers, round-nose pliers, flat-nose pliers, crimping pliers, and wire cutters, and the loop-and-wrap and basic stringing techniques. You'll be using the basic tools to expand and your palette of techniques and increase your comfort level by reptititvely practicing those techniques.
    Intermediate requires the ability to carry out beginner and skills without assistancem and advanced beginner skills with very little assistance.
    Experienced requires a working knowledge of a wide range of techniques.
