Expand your horizons, put wrinkles on your brain, learn a new skill/art with CLASSES ALA CARTE! I've set aside 2-hour sessions - Tuesdays (10-12 or 2-4), Wednesdays (10-12, 2-4 or 6-8), and Fridays (10-12) for teaching whatever you would like to learn. First come first serve so book your times early. Class tuition is $15 per session for one student, so a 3-session class is $45 tuition. Got a friend or family member or co-worker to learn with you? Then class tuition is $10 per session per student, so then a 3-session class is $30 tuition. And remember that when you purchase your supplies at the shop, you'll receive a 10% discount I have had requests for classes on Knitting Socks, Tatting, Rigid Heddle Weaving, Knitting Felted Clogs, and Beginning Knitting. If you are interested in any of these classes, or have a suggestion of your own, please contact me. I can set up a class with more than one person...the more the merrier, they say! Scroll to the bottom of the page and peruse the calendar pages so you can see what time slots are available for you to learn (plus all the other events - both fiber-related and non-fiber-related - at the shop and in the area). Be sure to call with any questions about classes or times available. In the meantime, here is a list of topics/classes that I am ready and willing to teach. If you would prefer a paper copy of the available classes, just call me and I'll mail you one, or click on the Acrobat icon in the left column and a class list will download to your computer. (But be warned, it's a big file and may take some time if you have dial-up connection.)
