🩷 Coming up 🩷
April 13 at Fiberside Chats: Anna Johanna. “Enjoying the Process - Mindful Knitting and Colorwork”. In this fast-paced world, even knitting can sometimes become all about being quick and productive. But stranded knitting takes a bit of concentration and forces you to slow down - while also providing you with a lovely dopamine rush as you get to admire the colorwork patterns taking shape. In this Fiberside Chat, Anna Johanna will be discussing her love of colorwork and slow making, letting things take time. Details: https://payhip.com/Yarniversity/events
April 26 (Saturday) is Local Yarn Shop Day.
April 27 at Fiberside Chats: Bristol Ivy. “Meaning in Every Stitch: Adding Secret Messages to Your Knitting!” We add love, thoughtfulness, and sometimes a few swear words into every project. But have you ever thought about adding a secret message? In this chat, Bristol will present several different ways to add hidden meanings to your work: important words, special dates, song lyrics and more. Together, we’ll explore the larger world of stitch pattern creation, from lace to texture to mosaic to cables. Details: https://payhip.com/Yarniversity/events
🩷 April 29 is the first online class in our new summer series class for Rowan, called “How to Knit a Fair Isle Vest”. We’ll be using a recently published vest pattern, called “Bramley” by Lisa Richardson, to teach participants how to knit a garment and use stranded colourwork techniques.
