"The class size was perfect…enough students to generate questions but not so many that you felt like a number." Maria
In the past year, we've had knitting classes, crochet classes, needle felting classes, and even a mending class, so if you don't see what you are looking for, let us know and we will see what we can do to get it on the schedule.
Virtual Classes (V)
Many of our classes are held virtually via Zoom. They are held "live" and not recorded for future viewing.
We've actually discovered that there are several advantages to this format. For one, the demonstrations of new techniques are really visible with the close-up camera angle. For another, our guest instructors can teach for us more frequently since they don't have to travel. And you don't have to travel to take part in these wonderful opportunities.
In-Person Classes (P)
In-Person Classes are held at String Theory, 477 N Main St.
Masks are welcome but not required.
