Entrelac Class

In addition to the 8 + new techniques class coming up, Look for a new class on Entrelac. Our Boku yarn is due to arrive any day, and there will also be accompanying shop models of our Lady Eleanor Entrelac scarf (not the stole yet) as well as and Entrelac headband. These projects are sure to excite you and create a desire to knit even more entrelac projects.
This project is Quant, and is a headband for all the stylish people in your lives. It keeps the top of their head warm (and ears) while also keeping their hair stylish. Quant was knit out of Poems, 100% wool.
Jennifer is working hard on the shop sample of her new class - FREE - where she will teach over 8 new techniques, that are new to her, as well as many others. Stay tuned for a list of what each new technique is....and the class will meet two times and will be offered during the day and the night.

We are always signing up new beginning knitters, so give us a call if you know someone interested and we can let you know the day and times of future classes.

Jennifer is challenging herself to trying to complete a garmet a week...some may be for infants, but many will be for us hard to please ladies. So far she is 3 for 3.

New shop models, new yarn, new class

YEAH - lots of new yarn, new shop models and an exciting 2 classes.
I have found a great hat pattern, using dk weight yarn, where you will learn at least 8 new techniques...not have to worry so much about gauge, and if your really adventurous, we will do our hat on one circular needle, 2 circular needles, 4 double points or 5 double point. I will be setting 2 different class times for this class this week. If you are at all interested in this fast and very insightful class, let me know what times would work for you in June. The second class will be another ongoing afghan/learning class. We will meet bi-monthly to learn a new stitch or technique. So stay tuned.
