Classes

I will be teaching both right-handed and left-handed techniques.

 

CLASS POLICIES:

  • Class space is limited so reservations are a must.  Classes will begin and end on the specified dates.  Most classes require homework to be completed before the next scheduled class.  If you know that you will be unable to attend all of the classes or complete the homework, you should consider waiting until the class is offered again.  To make a reservation, you must pay the class fee in advance.  Please make your reservation as soon as possible, so you are guaranteed a seat. If you have a reservation and must cancel, please call the shop so that someone else can take your place.
  • A class may be cancelled if not enough people sign up for it.  In this case a full refund will be given for the class tuition.
  • Each class is based on a specific project or list of skills.  If you complete the project or master the skills early, the class will be released early.
  • Private classes can be arranged as time permits for an hourly fee.
  • Class attendees MUST select the materials for their projects prior to the beginning of the first class, so that classes will start on time.
  • Yarn and patterns for classes MUST be purchased at Knit Your Dreams.
