SOCK YARN SALE DAY INFO
Monday, July 3/17 – Announcing our upcoming Sock Yarn Sale Day Info
Before we start into our Sock Yarn Sale Day Info, we want to let you know that we have an OOPS! class scheduled for this Saturday. If you can come, please call us at 519-474-0403 to register.
OOPS! I MADE A MISTAKE – For Beginners
One 2.5-hour Session
Cost: $35.00
Date & Time: Saturday, July 8/17 from 9:30 am – 12:00 pm
Teacher: Louise
THIS CLASS IS PERFECT FOR ALL BEGINNER KNITTERS
Lately we have had loads of requests to do a workshop on fixing mistakes. Well here it is! This hands-on class will not only teach you how to deal with all kinds of “knitting disasters” like dropped and twisted stitches and un-picking one or many rows, but will also deal with things like; “how do I know what row of my pattern I’m on” and “Oh-No! All of the stitches fell off of my needle! What do I do? And “Oh-No! The phone rang, I set down my knitting and now I don’t know how to start up again! So often customers tell us that they unravelled all of their knitting and started over simply because they didn’t have the skills to fix their mistake; Oh My! Never again after this workshop! Simply put, all beginner knitters can benefit from taking this class.
Rated: All Knitters
Pre-Requisite: Knowledge of Knit & Purl Stitches
...and now onto our Sale Day Info:
