SUMMARY:Felted Tote Bag
DESCRIPTION:Felted Tote Bag \nWednesdays\, 6 pm – 8 pm \nOctober 24 – November 7 (3 weeks) $60 \nLooking for a classy\, fun-to-make knitting project that will give you a chance to learn some new skills?  This versatile felted tote is perfect as a handbag\, for shopping or carrying books to and from the library.  Skills required:  basic knitting skills (cast on\, knit\, purl\, increase\, decrease\, bind off). Skills added:  knitting “in the round” (circular knitting)\,  I-Cord making\, changing colors\, working with natural fiber yarns\, and the entire felting process. Skill level: Advanced Beginner \nInstructor: Diane Corson \nStudio: TBA \nClass Limit: 10 \n  \nBring to class: a 24”circular needle\, size 11\, a set of 10” or 12” double-pointed needles\, size 11\,  3 skeins of  all-wool\, worsted weight yarn\, in 1 or 2 contrasting colors\, and four decorative buttons to compliment your completed bag (optional). The usual tools such as scissors\, tape measure and notebook are also helpful.(Suggestion: look for wooden or plastic needles\, which are much easier to handle than aluminum ones.) Handouts and all other materials will be provided.

DO NOT use any yarn with partial synthetic fiber content such as acrylic\, nylon or polyester\,  Do NOT choose a wool yarn marked “Superwash” or “Machine Washable” – those yarns will not felt. Finally\, choose a color/colors other than white\, since the bleaching process used on white yarns also makes them “Un-feltable\,”   \n  \nTo register: \n\nenter the number of “tickets” you want below (one ticket per student)\nclick “add to cart”  \ncomplete the contact information form that appears after you add a ticket\ncomplete the payment information\ncheck your email for your receipt\n\nPlease contact us with any registration questions or concerns. \nRegistration closes on at 6am on 10/22/18.
