Free Holiday Classes

As promised we've got some great EASY projects that we will be teaching for FREE this next week. Bring a friend and spend some quality time knitting something just for you or for someone special. You can even get a head start on your Christmas or Birthday giving for next year.

One Night Stand



This beautiful scarf is made with a Chunky Alpaca. They call for only 1 skein of Chunky Alpaca, but being a girl with shall we say "Big Girls" I can't have a scarf end resting on my "Girls" so I'm calling this the Two Night Stand. You need 2 skeins of Baby Alpaca Chunky and a size 10 needle. This pattern is nice because they give you both the written directions for the lace work as well as a chart for those who love chart reading.

This Class will be offered on

Saturday: December 26th from 10-12 and 4-6pm
Tuesday: December 29th from 2-4pm

and Thursday: December 31st from 10-12pm

the second class we will be offering is a gorgeous Spiral Rib Hat

This hat is a nice spiral design which is easy to knit with the help of two markers. What I love about the pattern is it works with any yarn. They've done all the math and you just knit a swatch plug in the numbers and voila you've got a pattern. We are making this
out of a thick thin yarn which give both visual and textural interest.

We will be offering this class:

Saturday, December 26 1-3pm
Tuesday, December 29 4-6pm

and Thursday, December 31 1-3pm


Time's Running Out
