Our classes are divided into the following skill levels:
Level 0 is designed exclusively for students who have never attempted this craft before. In these classes, you will learn foundation skills that are expanded upon in later levels.
Level 1 is intended for those who have learned the basics recently, or years ago. We will go over the basics to re-learn or refresh foundational skills.
Level 2 builds upon the skills learned in Level 1 by introducing you to techniques such as shaping and working in the round.
Level 3 explores short rows and provides a valuable opportunity to continue building skills and fixing mistakes.
Level 4 introduces projects that rely on your understanding of gauge and how it affects your fabric. You will be guided through making a garment that fits.
Level 5 is for experienced makers who are looking for a new challenge with advanced stitch techniques, and higher difficulty projects.
Workshops are designed to be accessible for anyone falling into Level 2 or higher. Needle felting and punch needle workshops are perfect for beginners and up.
