My Spring/Summer Classes promise lots of fun and knitting satisfaction.
Get ready for summer with these accessories.
Some of these knit up in no time at all and are small
enough to take along wherever you go.
Please note that I am very flexible with the class
schedule and if you are interested in a specific class, but can’t make it to
the posted date, I can add a class on a day convenient to you or switch the
date. All classes are for a maximum of
three students.
For all classes I am giving two choices of dates.

Turkish Bed Socks by
Churchmouse Yarns and Teas This is a great low sitting summer sock to
wear in your clogs, keds etc (NO, you do not need to go to bed in them). I just finished a pair myself. They are
knitted one at the time and the instructions are given for DPN’s, but this can
also be knitted on two circulars. Half
of the sock is knitted flat, and then joined in the round. You should get most if not all of the flat
knitting done during class.
What you need: 170-175 yards of fingering or sock weight yarn and US#
3needles (either DPN’s or two circulars).
The $5 pattern is included in the class fee.
Average difficulty rating: Easy
850 ratings with 1 very
easy and 10 very difficult
718 ratings between 1-4.

been knitting socks lately and have a lot of pretty sock and fingering weight

½ circular needle (depending on your tension and desired denseness of finished
shawl). The $5 pattern is included in
the class fee.

Jersey Knit Bracelet by Vanessa Christenson This is a finger knit and you should be able
to finish this during the class. Using
your fingers instead of knitting needles may feel awkward at first, but you
will get the hang of this.
What you need: Three fabric
strips of 1 inch width approximately 58 inches long. Jersey is a good choice
for its stretchiness. Alternatively you
could knit three strips or use some pretty 1” wide ribbon :). The pattern
is free.
Average Difficulty rating: No ratings
All Classes are $55 and
include the pattern when applicable.
Additional help with the
project is also included in the class fee.
