Coming soon...
Celeste had a fun time at TNNA searching out lots of fabulous new yarns for Loop & Leaf, and she found many that are a great fit! Now that she is back, the boxes will start coming in any day now filled with new (and sometimes exclusive) yarn from Habu, Madelinetosh, Noro, Jade Sapphire, ShiBui and lots, lots more. Keep an eye out for these new yarns arriving in the near future!
Knitting in the Round
2 Saturdays, February 6th & 20th, 10am-1pm
Don't let knitting in the round intimidate you anymore. In this class, you will learn to knit seamlessly for garments that might be too bulky with a seam, such as a hat. This class will give you the basic skills to do larger garments in the round as well - a sweater knit in the round requires little to no seaming!

Socks 101
3 Wednesdays, February 10th, 17th and 24th, 5:30-7pm
Using a worsted weight yarn, and a basic sock pattern you will embark down the journey of creating your first handknit sock. We will be working in the round on double pointed needles, making short rows and picking up stitches, all wonderful techniques to be used for more socks or in other knitted garments.
