December Classes
We try yo keep many of the December classes to easy, make and take projects as we know many of you are still working on gifts!
Intro to Knitting

Intro to Knitting for the Adventurous Beginner
With Sue

Think of this class as more of a refresher. Have you learned to knit before but it has been a while?
You will relearn how to cast on, how to work a knit stitch and purl stitch and identify each while working on a welted cowl. Come back when you are done and we will teach you how to bind off!
Snatching Beauty from the Jaws of Weaving Disaster
With Peggy
Friday Dec 14th
OR Wednesday Dec 19th
Most of us, when learning a new skill, have a few pieces that just don't quite turn out the way we want. With weaving it can be bad edges, or inconsistent beating (tension), or warping gone wrong. Peggy is going to show you how to create beautiful pieces out of the things we are tempted to throw away! If you do not have any of these to bring -- Peggy will provide some of hers!
Felted Soaps
a Make and Take Class
With Denise Brown
Saturday, Dec 22nd
Felted soaps are a blast to make - they can be very simple or you can use extra wool to create designs.
Felted soaps are a washcloth and soap all in one - acts like a loofah, has antibacterial properties, and makes soap last longer.
Denise will provide the wool and soaps. Students will need to bring a good size bowl. HOKC has felting pads you can use. You will need to purchase felting needles which we have in stock.

January Sweater KAL!
It is almost January which means we are getting ready for January Sweater KAL!
This year, we will do things a little differently. We are going to pick one sweater - The Log Cabin Cardigan - and see who all wants to join in and make it.
We will have some optional classes to work skill sets - including how to make minor adjustments for the perfect fit. This is a fast, fun, and easy knit! Any skill set can make this sweater - and the pattern is free!
