11:00am to 1:00pm both days
$40 per student- all materials included

In this class the kids will learn the basics of knitting including casting on, knitting and casting off and they will make a small project over the course of the two days and they can decide what! Some kids have done wallets, ipod holders, fingerless gloves, headbands... whatever they can come up with they can make!

Kids learn to purl!
Tues/Wed July 16-17, 2013
11:00am to 1:00pm both days

2nd sibling discount of 10%

In this class we will take knitting to the next level by combining the knit and purl stitches to create new patterns! Knit and Purl are the two basic stitches of knitting and once we conquer that, we can make almost anything! We will do another project in this class so another ball of yarn will be provided! Please have the kids bring their own snacks if they need to.


Kids knit jewellery class!
Tues/Wed July 23-24, 2013
11:00am to 1:00pm both days
$40 per student- all materials included
2nd sibling discount of 10%

In this class we will take the knitting basics- knit and purl- and put them together to create some knit jewellery pieces! We will use eyecord makers to make necklaces, knitting needles and yarn to make bracelets and even whip up some headbands! We will include embellishments like beads and sequins to make each piece truly unique! If the kids have leftover scraps from other classes bring them to incorporate in to their pieces! Please have the kids bring their own snacks if they need to.


Kids wet felting and needle felting
Tues/Wed July 30-31, 2013
11:00am to 1:00pm both days

This class is so much fun! We will be working with wool rovings to create felted pieces such as scarves, placemats, wallets, purses and whatever else we can dream up! This is a very interactive class and we do spend quite a bit of it outside so be sure that the kids have sunblock! Please have the kids bring their own snacks if they need to.
