Children are welcome at our groups as long as they are working on a project and not disruptive.

Class refunds. We consider your enrollment a commitment to take the class.  We order supplies and make a commitment to our instructors based on that registration.  Many of our teachers drive from surrounding areas to share their skills.  Class fees are fully refundable up to one week prior to class.  After that time they will be non-refundable and non-transferable.  In the event that The Spinster cancels a class there will of course be a full refund.

 

Nalbinding

with Katie

This durable and simple craft was popular all around the world.  Now few people know how.  Help us keep this craft alive, gain the knowledge to pass on to others.  A sense of humor is recommended for the class but not required.  Simple project ideas include pouches, bottle/ cup snuggies, hats and fingerless mitts.  Bring your supplies and your creativity and we can slip our way back into the past and bring it with us into the future.

 Supplies needed:  Large-eyed needle, thick or fuzzy yarn works well.  Fee $25

Mystery Project

 

Here’s one to make you think outside the box.  This is a knit-a-long or crochet-a-long (read no fee class) of one skein projects.  Every other week a new idea, make a gift long before you need it.  We’ll tell you what size needles and hooks to bring, buy one skein of yarn here at the shop before you see the pattern. Surprise yourself putting together the unexpected.  Call for needle size before you come.
