Join us for a glass of something and a conversation & mini workshop where you get to learn more about & play with colour, texture, and gauge. We'll have piles of different yarns in all the colours and textures created at Prosper. We'll discuss different fibres, and yarn constructions, and their resulting personalities and uses.

Then we will start experimenting by knitting or crocheting swatches to see first-hand how the yarns behave on their own or even when held together with other yarns. We supply the yarn and needles to use during the workshop.

 

Skill level: able to do basic stitches (not a learn how to class, but you're welcome to come along for the chat if you don't knit or crochet).

 

Let the fun begin!
