Knitting, spinning, fibre preparation and felting workshops...
With Birchblanket Workshops, dedicated fibre arts instructor Kathleen believes everyone - yes, you! - can easily learn the skills and confidence to pursue the projects you want to work on.
Each workshop is a two-hour timeblock designed to give you the instruction you need to complete the skill-building project - and each project has application to a larger project (i.e., a small knitted cupwarmer will teach you skills for a hat or shawl or sweater). Larger projects will have two or more timeblocks.
Get set for success in 'making' and learn the skills to complete projects you'll want to make. Keep an eye out for classes in the calendar - updated regularly!
