Fall Classes at Chicks With Sticks
Fall classes and events: Are you a knitting newbie? Join us for a one-night class on Monday, Oct. 24 that will get you going on your first shawl! Torrent is a straight-forward asymmetrical triangle shawl that will knit up quickly with one skein of DK weight yarn. Find out more and sign up at this link. Needle tatting is easy and fun! Drop in on Saturday, Oct. 22 between noon and 2 p.m. for a free demo to see how this one-stitch technique can be used to create embellishments for your projects, make jewelry, and create motifs. More info is here. The next Beginning Knitting classes start Wednesday, November 2. You can sign up for one or take the series of three classes (Beginning Knitting 1, 2, and 3). Check our class list here or calendar here. Join us on three Monday evenings, Nov. 7, 14, and 28, for Western Rose. In this pattern by Thea Coleman beautiful flowers stand out against the stockinette body. This sweater is knit from the bottom up. Sleeves are joined at yoke and then both raglan shaping and short rows are added before working the final collar. The mosaic technique makes colorwork a breeze! You can get more info and sign up here. Does a project have you down? Thursday night drop-in help sessions may be just what you need for those times you need a couple hours of assistance (or just moral support) on a project. Sessions run from 6-8pm Thursday nights. Be sure to check our online calendar. Due to scheduling conflicts, there will be no sessions on October 27 or November 3. Thank you for making us your Local Yarn Shop!
