BEGINNER’S SERIES: Rivi Mitts

We want to encourage our beginning knitters! To do so, we’ve come up with our Beginner’s Series. These mitts are a must and can be matched with the Tazmanian Devil Hat! This twisted rib really pops and we will help you overcome your fear of the thumb hole! Yarnista & Owner Susan Dickerson will lead you through this 2-session class from 1 to 3 pm Mondays, June 11 & 25. This session is HALF OFF our regular pricing to support of Homemade for the Homeless Project. Beginning June 9, we are collecting items for the homeless in preparation for the fall. Everyone who contributes a handmade item will be entered into a GRAND PRIZE GIVEAWAY. All donations must be turned in by Aug. 15.

All materials can be purchased at The Flying Needles for 10% off after you have registered. Register for this class by stopping by or calling us at (757) 345-3655.
