Classes

– Beginner Fair Isle Knitting - Headband/Earwarmer - Sunday February 5, 1:00-4:00. Fair Isle knitting looks complicated, but is really quite simple! This classic technique is wonderful for the artistically inclined, as the pattern motifs allow experimentation with color. It is also a great way to use left over same- weight balls of yarn. In this class we'll learn how to strand and read a chart.
Supplies needed: 16" circular needles, size 6 or 7; stitch markers; at least 7 - 1/4 to full balls of sport weight yarn in a pleasing color combination. A row counter is also helpful. We might do a bit of color/yarn trading.
Skill: requires knowledge of knitting and purling. Supplies also available at the shop. This is a Free Class!

- Beginner Cable Pot Holder - Sunday February 19, 10:30 – 12:30.
Learn to knit cables. Supplies needed – Worsted weight 100% wool or cotton yarn and needles - size required for yarn, typically Size 7 or 8, and a cable needle.
Skills: Knit and purl stitch. You will receive a pattern to complete the project. Supplies also available at the shop. This is a Free Class!

Please check back often, as the schedule will be updated on an as needed basis. If you are interested in a particular class (socks, hats, etc) and you don't see the class, please contact us.
