Guild Workshops for 2010









April 10-11







Spring Workshop
with Amy Singer amysinger.ca - amysinger.ca or www.knitty.com
"In this class, Amy will give you a simple plug-and-play manual that will let you turn sock yarn, or any other fingering-weight yarn, into something gorgeous to wrap around your shoulders. Triangles and rectangular wrap options are offered and the lace patterns are guaranteed easy-but-beautiful. This class provides the basis for designing your own lace shawls and an afternoon's instruction, feedback and support as you work through your ideas."

Plug-and-Play shawl design all-day workshop • Saturday April 10 Session

Location: (our regular meeting place)
St. Andrews Lutheran Church,
11555 National Bl. (corner of Federal and National) in West Los Angeles.

Time: 10:00 am to 5:00 pm

We will take an hour lunch break, please pack your lunch or there are several places close by to buy lunch.

Supplies:
- 600-800 yards of fingering-weight yarn – suggestions include wool blended with silk, bamboo or tencel, pure silk, alpaca, cashmere, tencel blends, bamboo – in a solid or semi-solid color.
- optional: approx 100 yards of fingering- or sport-weight cotton or cotton-blend yarn for swatching purposes only
- a good selection of needles in sizes US5 - US9 [circulars are great for the increasing row length in triangular shawls], and more sizes wouldn't hurt
- a big pile of simple ring stitch markers [at least 25...more is better]
- a pad of graph paper and a pencil/eraser
