We are hosting our first workshop in the shop together with our friend Brittney - the wizard behind Fibird!

What: In this 3 hour beginner level workshop you will learn how to colour with yarn using the Oxford Punch Needle! Workshop participants will complete a 10" wall hanging  “Floppy Poppies”, designed and taught by Brittney of Fibird. We will use 100% wool, chunky rug yarn from Canadian company Briggs + Little Woolen Mills as the base. Then choose your own flower colours to add your own personal touch! Punch needle is easy to learn; with a few tips and tricks from Brittney you will quickly enjoy this unique art form!

Workshop Kit: 100% Canadian wool yarn, 10" Cloth wrapped wood frame with pre-drawn image. Students will borrow a #10 regular Oxford Punch Needle for the workshop; it is not a part of the kit. Punch needles, kits and cloth can be purchased through Brittney after the class if desired.
