Look what I made!

Yes, me! I made a Norwegian Toque under the guidance of our instructor, June Golato! I have not knit with small needles in a while. I love the way this hat came out and was surprised that it actually knit up so quickly.

Here it is! Knit from my very own 50% mohair – 50% Columbian wool. June has a great Norwegian mitten pattern for us to try out in another class. Watch for details.

My sister, Sally came for a visit last weekend. She is a felter – wet felter, that is! She spent all day Saturday teaching me how to create felted flowers. I am not a pro yet – but I love the results. Made from our mohair, of course!

We have more classes coming up – check out the Programs page!

February Freeze!

February certainly has a mind of its own!  The gallery is surrounded by piles of snow, made bigger and bigger as the snow plow keeps our little parking lot open..  It is warm and cozy – just right for a mid winter visit.  We have eight brand new artists and more on the way.  Come on out and give us a look-see.  We are open Thursdays noon – 8:00 pm, and Saturdays and Sundays, noon – 5:00 pm.
