Our Knitting Machine Classes Are Back! (https://www.thebeesknits.com/hat-workshops)

Spots are limited and filling up quickly so be sure to book yours now

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

Sign up for the date of your choice on our website, or email us to set up a custom class date. Everything you need for this class is included, and you don't have to have any prior experience working with yarn.

• Choose ANY color yarn you would like from our selection of soft, merino yarn that is machine-washable

• Wind your skein with us into a cake
• Learn how to load the knitting machine with our guidance
• Crank out the stitches, creating the fabric that will become your hat
• Cinch, Stitch, and more. We will show you how everything comes together
• Add a finishing touch. Your hat comes with your very own faux-leather tag that has been locally made!

& VOILA! Your custom hat is done and all yours to take in just about an hour of time.
