Cozy Knits: A Skill-Building Knitting Circle
with Kit Burke-Smith

No class on November 11th.
Have you ever wanted to learn how to knit? Or perhaps you've already made a basic hat or scarf and are ready to take on a new challenge, like learning how to cable, read a chart, or knit in the round? This class caters to all skill levels and goals! Think of this class like a group independent study focusing in knitting. Learn a cozy skill, embrace the hygge hype, and make something cool with others doing the same. We will provide some needles and yarn for folks to use while practicing new skills. Students will be responsible for bringing their own materials for individual projects. This class is for adults and teens of all skill levels.

Japanese Shibori
with Katrin Reifeiss

In this two-day hands-on class, you’ll explore two traditional Japanese Shibori techniques: Nui Shibori (stitching) and Itajime Shibori (folding and clamping).On the first day, teaching artist Katrin Reifeiss will guide you through stitched resist techniques to create intricate patterns, using fabric provided for you to create samples. On the second day, you’ll learn how to fold fabric in various ways and use wood or plexiglass shapes with clamps to create geometric designs. Everyone will have the chance to dye their pieces in an indigo vat!
Please bring your own washed, natural fiber items for the Itajime Shibori technique—cotton, linen, hemp, silk, wool, rayon, or blends of these work well. Avoid anything oversized (no sheets or duvet covers, please). Items like t-shirts, scarves, napkins, pillowcases, tea towels, or clothing are perfect.
Please bring plastic bags to take your dyed items home.
No experience is necessary—just a curiosity to experiment! All materials except for fiber items to dye are included.
