Hi,
Would these beginner classes?
I would like to try one when I am off. Looks like Exotic Birds I will be off.
I have angora rabbits and would like to use their wool as well.
Thank you for any suggestions,
Angela

opps, the January 26th class I am off.
Is it a beginner class? Do you need your own tools?
Thank you

Angela,
None of these needle felting classes require any previous experience. However, the January 26th class is on using an embellisher machine for machine felting. The instructor is rounding up at least a couple of machines for people to use who don’t have their own, but students are encouraged to bring theirs if they have one. You are also welcome to bring any fibers you have, as well. If using the felting machines doesn’t appeal to you, most of the felting classes are for needle (hand) felting and hopefully another class will line up with your schedule. Or perhaps we could schedule another time that works better for you.

Do you have the pattern for the knitted Potato Chip Scarf? The one I’m trying is driving me crazy. I have 2 “chips” that seem to be getting bigger and bigger but not longer. Does this sound right.?

We do have a pattern for a Potato Chip scarf, but I don’t know if it’s the same pattern you have. If you would like to stop in and see the Knit Doctor, I’m sure she can help you out better than I can since I can’t see your scarf. The Knit Doctor is in Monday evenings from 6:30 to 8:30.
