Introduction to Two Color Brioche Knitting with Megan
Curious about learning brioche knitting? Come join us for this one-day introductory class! Participants will learn two-color brioche knitting in both flat and in-the-round, including a few common increase and decrease stitches found in brioche patterns. Students are expected to know intermediate/advanced knitting techniques such as knitting in the round, magic loop for small diameter circular knitting, slipped stitches, and how to use a cable needle.
Spin a hat for the holidays (Part 2)!
In this two-session class we will spin and ply yarn for a specific project — a cabled hat of your choice. We will suggest a couple free patterns from Ravelry, but the main idea is to spin yarn appropriate for the job of warming our heads in the cold weather, and of showing up nicely in a cabled pattern. However, if you have another hat pattern in mind, bring it and we can help you spin for that one.

Let's Get Spinning with Nelly (Class)
In this 3-hr class, students will begin by learning the basics of spinning wheel function and will leave with their own hand spun yarn! This class is designed for beginners, but any spinners are welcome, whether you just can’t get the hang of your wheel or want help trouble-shooting any specific spinning problems. Fiber for spinning will be provided.
We have spinning wheels people can use, but if you have your own, please bring it so you can learn on what you will be using at home.

FIBRuary is Coming!!
FIBRuary Indy is a month-long celebration for fiber lovers, starting with FIBRuary Fest (February 1, 2025, from 10-4 at Forest Park Inn in Noblesville, IN). This festival will have local/regional craft vendors that support people who love making and using yarn — hand-dyed yarn, fiber, ceramics, tools, bags, etc. This kick-off event will also feature demonstrations, yarn doctors to help with your projects, and warm treats – all in a beautiful park setting.
This event is followed by a 2-week yarn crawl with participating yarn stores within an hour’s drive of Indianapolis. Visit your favorite LYS and try some new ones. Bring your yarn passport for extra savings and be entered into drawing for prizes.
Throughout the month we will host gatherings in central Indiana to share the love of yarn and making with each other.
