PROJECT OF THE MONTH CLUBS – Join us for any or all sessions as we work on a project together!
Project of the Month Club- Felted Ankle Warmers. Not, not leg warmers, these are meant to be thick and are felted to stand up to a real New England storm! Please call for a material list. This is a great way to try felting, and the Ankle Warmers make great holiday gifts. Please be comfortable working with Double Points. $15 includes pattern and felting instructions

K2TOG & Lush Spinners Wed. 4-8pm
The Irish Ewe hosts a Stitch and Bitch on Wednesday nights from 4pm to 8pm. K2TOG Night is free - we provide the coffee and tea, you bring your knitting. You can bring some potluck cookies (or anything else chocolate!) or leave something in our cookie fund jar. If spinning is your thing, you can join mom (Deb) limited rental wheels available, or bring your own. This is an adult only group, as we may bring out some wine (nothing like sloshy ladies with sharp, pointy sticks to liven a night up!)

Please note - Wednesday nights are a free knit night, we do not teach or offer free lessons at the knitting table (unless you are signed up in a class) as this is often the only time we get to knit and spin ourselves . We will, however, be more than happy to give you our thoughts on your project. Usually whether you want it or not! If you do need Drop In Help, please remember to leave a tip.

KID’S KNIT CLUB every other Saturday 12-2pm - On hold.
Join Andrew as the kids take over the back room! Show off your work, see what others are up to, and get a little help too. This is not a class, but Andrew can help with problems. Please bring a snack to share or leave something in the Cookie Fund Jar. Ages 8 and up welcomed. In the mean time you can join the Kids Knit email chat group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/KidsKnit

DROP IN HELP
We offer drop in help anytime! Up to 15 minutes of help without waiting for a classes, just enough to get through that one tough spot! No set cost - please leave a tip in the Cookie Fund Jar. Private Lessons - Anything over 15 minutes really needs an appointment. We offer private group and one-person classes for adults and children, just ask for more details.
