Tetsubou- a Japanese inspired hat

Instructor: Sandi 2 class sessions, $40.
Tetsubou HatLearn to knit this very cute hat that can be worn in many different ways. The double folded hem provides a visual frame to the face with just enough slouch to the crown to flatter the silhouette. The quirky cutout detail can be cinched with an I cord or left open to be worn helmet-style Tetsubou = Japanese for helmet. Styling options also include flapper or cloche side styling or ponytail framing. While the double hem may seem difficult, this class gives you lots of tips and tricks so you will be mastering this in no time.

    January 23, 2011
    12:30 pmto3:30 pm

    Instructor: Jeane deCoster 1 class 3 hours $35.00
    Learn to be a hooker! Learn the skills necessary to make a dreamy rug out of unspun wool roving. This craft requires NO previous fiber or yarn experience of any kind. It’s easier on the brain and the hands than traditional rug hooking. In this class we’ll start a chair seat cover. There’s nothing like the cooooosh of wool pile under your toooooosh or your feet. Rug samples will be available to inspire future projects. Locker hooks will be available for use during the class or bring your own.
