Our list is up here and the sign-ups have begun. I'm happy to say we've already had our first sold-out class (the Beginning Knitting class on 1/13), so Yay beginners!
Don't forget that we will be happy to create a class for you--just gather a couple of friends and pick a project. (We have lots of ideas if you need a suggestion.) For $60 per two-hour session we will teach up to seven students on YOUR schedule. We are so excited to offer this alternative for classes.
You might have noticed we don't have any sock classes on the schedule. There's still lots of opportunity to learn socks this winter. Knit Purl Hunter, together with our lovely distributor Skacel, is offering six FREE knit-a-longs to make socks and fingerless gloves. Michelle will offer videos and lots of skill-building with one project a month. Even better, Skacel is offering very generous prizes every month, including several sets of Addi Clicks, with the final grand prize of a trip to Seattle and a shopping spree in their warehouse!
There's no real sign-up in the shop--to enter the contest you'll just send a photo of your completed sock to Skacel. They ask that you use the designated Trekking yarn which we carry in the shop, with extra credit given for using their chosen color. We HAD the chosen color in the shop for about two hours last week, but sold out faster than we've ever sold out of anything. More is on the way and should arrive in the shop Tuesday afternoon. This is a fun, low-stress way to learn some new skills at your own pace and on your own schedule. Let us know how it's going!
Please note that you can actually follow along the KAL using any yarn you like. However, only projects knit with Trekking yarn will be eligible for the prizes. Happy Knitting!
