Guided Projects (ongoing)

$50 + tax & supplies for any five 2-hour classes in 3 months

Pre-requisite: You must either have completed the Knitting Basics class or possess all the skills listed in the class descriptions above.

Are you ready to take on an exciting and challenging project? Do you need guidance on a project that you’ve been stuck on forever? Perhaps you want to see what others are knitting and seek inspirations for your next project.

The Guided Projects class is for more experienced knitters who will get to work on independent projects. The instructors are ready to help, from selecting an interesting project appropriate for your skill level, modifying patterns to suit your needs, to identifying and fixing your mistakes.

This Guided Projects class gives you the flexibility of attending any 5 weekly classes of your choosing within 3 months of signing up. After attending 5 classes, you can continue to come by paying for 5 more (which is a distinct possibility after you find out how much fun these classes are!)

Session Instructor Dates Status
Winter Hickory Lee or Susan Mehringer 7 to 9 pm on Thursdays

Sock Club

$25 Annual Fee

Pre-requisite: You must either have completed the Sock Basics class or possess all the skills required for making a basic sock.

Our Sock Club welcomes all sock knitters. A non-refundable $25 annual fee allows you to:

  • Join our monthly meeting from 5:00 to 7:00 pm on the second Friday of every month, and
  • Purchase any one 100g ball or two 50g balls of sock yarn (enough to make one adult pair) at 15% off during the monthly meeting.

Theresa George will host these monthly meetings. The Club welcomes all sock knitters who knit 1 pair a year or 1 pair a week (although we suspect that number will go up significantly with the discounted sock yarn you can buy every month). A sock yarn and pattern will be featured at each month’s meeting. We’ll exchange sock knitting tips and other great patterns members have come across, show off our beautiful socks, and we’ll sit and knit socks!

Host Dates Status
Theresa George 5 to 7 pm on the second Friday of every month Open for Sign Up!
