Knitting with Company

We are thrilled to be hosting Amy Swensen (Indigirl) who is coming to do a workshop for her fabulous Cloudchaser Vest – a Ravelry favorite. The workshop will run for 3 hours on the morning of Saturday, September 18th and for 3 hours on the afternoon of Sunday, September 19th with all that knitting time in between. The cost for the workshop is $55 which includes the amazing pattern. Space is very, very limited, so please get your name on the list ASAP. We will be giving the information on homework and yarn selections etc. after we have moved.

We love it when we get updates from our customers.

So Lori just sent us this …

Here are the socks that I started at the April/May “Socks 101″ class. This was my first class at Wool and Company and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’ll be in for more yarn soon!

We think she did an awesome job, how about you?

We’ve got loads of classes lined up over the summer for your knitting, crochet and felting pleasure.  There’s a few of our classics as well as a lot of new ideas. You can see everything and book your spot with our online schedule or you can download our trifold and print it out … it’ll fit nicely in your purse.

Always wanted to knit or crochet? Then our Knitting 101 or Crochet 101 is just for you.

The Knitting 101 class is for those who want to pick up knitting after a long lay-off or for absolute beginners. After four two-hour sessions you will have mastered all the fundamentals and completed a sampler scarf and be ready to tackle one of the many projects that we teach.

In Crochet 101 we will get you started on the crochet adventure. You’ll learn the basics and beyond (slip stitch, chain stitch, foundation chain, single crochet, double crochet, shell stitch and much more). You”ll learn enough to start your first project and pick up the skills needed to complement your knitting. You”ll make squares, washcloths and learn how to do edging.

See pictures and descriptions of all the classes on our website or you can subscribe to our RSS Feed for classes and events – that way you’re certain not to miss the additional classes that we plan to add in the coming weeks.
