Jane Ellison Workshop

I have been offered a chance to bring Jane Ellison in to run a knitting workshop on Wednesday October 10th. Jane Ellison designs for Noro and the new Mirasol Peru Fair Trade line.

Jane Ellison worked with Debbie Bliss for a long time and has been designing for Noro Yarns for several years. She is doing several workshops across Canada and I feel lucky to be able to offer this workshop to you!

When designers do workshops they always bring samples of their work from books they have written. They are so fun to see because the pictures in the books rarely do them justice. It will be interesting to find out about her creative process and to learn a knitting technique from her.

The price ,which will be $75 to $100, will include any yarn that is used in the workshop. You will definitely leave the workshop with lots of inspiration and a new technique to try out.

E-mail me at kniterary@hotmail.com if you are interested!!

This is hopefully the start of workshops from knit designers around the world. I hope to be able to offer them once or twice every year.
