Happy Dot Day!

I am so sorry for neglecting you the last few weeks. We weren’t super busy here but I had a lot going on with the kids, Dorchester Day stuff and the high school prom and graduation. But here’s what’s new….

The Shawl Contest is ON! We have a few but need more! You can bring yours in any time… don’t worry about being late. When you’re in next vote for your favorite.

We have 2 sewing classes starting this week. Tomorrow night Moo has an Intro to Sew starting. It will run 4 weeks from 6-8pm. We have 1 seat left! Then Moo’s trying something different for Saturday. We’re running a 2 week Intensive Intro to Sew.This class runs 2 Saturdays, June 6 and 13 from 10:30-2:30 and includes a light lunch. Get some sewing done for the summer! We have room in this class for you!

Katie is hosting a Beginning Sock Workshop THIS Saturday! She knows some people just love making socks - come find out why! In this one-day workshop, we’ll take you from start to finish to make squooshy, comfy, lounge-around-the-house socks. Participants will (hopefully!) finish the first sock during the workshop, and fast knitters will get started on the second one. The pattern takes you step-by-step through a ribbed sock from the cuff down, on double-pointed needles. For advanced beginners - some experience on DPNs is helpful. Saturday, June 6, 2-5pm, $30.

And then on Saturday, June 20, Jen is running a one-day Serger Workshop. Bring your own and leanr how to thread it and use the basic functions. 10-11:30am.
