Yes, we've scheduled even more classes for this month and next. Many of
these are single session classes to get your holiday gift-making jump started.
Our newest shop associate, Diane Lanier, will be teaching a one session
class featuring the Linen Stitch, and the Road Rage pattern from
Shibui Knits. Patterns are on order and will be in at the end of
the week. This class will meet on Sunday, November 18th, from 4 to
630pm. The registration fee is $30.00. Click here to read all the details.
The next two classes are from our other Diane.
On December Monday, December 10th, and Friday, December
14th, she will be teaching her Understanding Gauge Hat
Class. You will learn how to use a gauge swatch to create a
perfect fitting garment every time, and knit a cute hat at the same time. This
class is based on Anne Hansen's Snug Cap for All Sizes pattern (also due in
later this week). The class will meet from 530 to 730 pm on both days
and the registration fee is $45.00. Click here for the details.
And Diane's other class is a single session fun and quick project
Finger Knit Scarf class. This class will meet on
Wednesday, December 12th from 530 to 730pm. The registration fee is
$30.00 and you can click here for more information.
This is a great opportunity to introduce your child or grandchild to the
fun of knitting. Diane will accept children as young as 10 or 11 for this class.
Children between the ages of 10 and 14 must have a parent or other responsible
adult in the shop during the class although, if not separately registered for
the class, they will not participate.
And YES, we have CROCHET!!!
Sharon Cowan is going to be teaching our group classes and she is starting out
with an outstanding offering. On Saturday, December 1st, she is going to
teach her Marble Mosaic Mobius/Cowl. When she showed me the
model, I could not believe it was knitted from our old standby, Marble Chunky,
which makes this a washable and practical project and a great holiday gift. This
class is for Advanced Beginners and will include reading crochet charts in
addition to learning some spike stitches. The class will been from 330
to 630 and the registration fee is $35.00. Read all the details here. This scarf or cowl will also be
wonderful crocheted up in Cascade Covington or Crystal Palace Mochi Plus, if
you'd prefer something with wool in it.
Sharon and I are working on Introduction to Crochet
classes for January and beyond as well as some other great crochet project
classes, including a lace shawl and something using Tunisian crochet.
And our last addition to the
November and December class schedule is something a little different. On
Wednesday, December 26th, Kirsten will be offering a 2 hour
Introduction to Ravelry workshop. This is the first of
2 or 3 different Ravelry workshops we will be offering. This one is for
beginners, even those of you who aren't Ravelry members yet. The focus of this
workshop will be yarn and patterns searches. The workshop will run from
4 to 6pm and the registration fee is $25.00. The flyer with all
the details will be in the next newsletter. Future workshops will cover
topics from the My Notebooks menu, such as projects, queue, stash, favorites,
groups, library and more.
