OCTOBER/NOVEMBER/DECEMBER CLASSES

CABLED VEST - What a gorgeous vest this is.  As hard as it looks it really was quite easy.  I had the chart blown way up, we color coded the different cables and away we knitted.  I like this so much I am making a second one, red this time.  This class will meet on the first Saturday of October, November, December and January. We will finish the vest in class in January. Each class you attend will be $25.00. Materials Needed - We are recommending Lana Grossa Cool Wool 2000 or Silk Maiden from Fleece Artist, US 4 and 6 circular needles or needles to gauge, a cable needle and lots of stitch markers.  Pattern free with the purchase of yarn.

October 6 - Saturday 10:30 to 1:00pm - Gauge Swatch, measurements, cast on for back of vest -$25.00
November 3 - Saturday 10:30 to 12:30 - Back of vest should be finished, starting both fronts at the same time, Q&A about pattern, problems - $25.00

January 5 - Saturday 10:30 -1pm - Sew Hood closed, pick up ribbing around armholes and finish, button band and button holes, sew on buttons, pose for class picture with beautiful new hooded vest. $25.00


AMELIE CROCHETED/KNITTED JACKET - 2nd Saturday of October, November, December, January $25.00 each class.  Supplies Needed:  Your choice of four/five different types, weights and colors of yarn, needles appropriate for each type yarn, buttons

This is the most fun project I have done in both Knit and Crochet.  The fact I can use my own imagination, not match someone else's gauge, it's all based on how I knit and crochet, be able to work with textures I want to and colors that I want to and never see myself coming!  The next one I do will be crocheted in much lighter weight yarns, like my favorite Sea Silk!
