How signups work:
Your SSK fee includes one class at no additional cost from one of our amazing teachers. We will ask that you choose your top three classes, and we will do our best to accommodate your request based on demand/class size. I try to have everyone’s selections in before I assign classes. In the past 4 years, almost every single person who was attending SSK at the time of class signups was able to get their first choice class. That’s something I am hopeful will happen again this year.
Additional classes may be available for an extra $50 per class cost. If you decide that you would like to add a class at anytime, just let Laura know via email and she will do our best to make that happen.
A special note about spinning classes: If you would like to take a spinning class and are unable to bring a wheel with you, we will have 4-5 wheels available for free rental. We ask that you let us know on the class form because that may affect which session of class you will be able to take. If you can only use or prefer a specific wheel, please let Laura know.

WOOLEN OR WORSTED—HOW DO YOU DECIDE?
There are the rules: Long fibers—short draw, short fibers—long draw. But sometimes rules are meant to be broken. The best way to decide how to spin for a project is to spin a little fiber and make a swatch or a sample. In this class we will spin fibers with different drafting techniques and you will have enough yarn to make a sample. We will look at other factors as well, so you can design an amazing yarn for your project.
Beginning spinning skills required. Students should be able to spin a continuous yarn and be comfortable with their wheel.
Material fee $15
Students should bring:
Spinning wheel and all its parts
Lazy kate and at least 4 bobbins
ENGLISH LONGDRAW VS AMERICAN LONGDRAW
What is the difference between English longdraw (double drafting) and American longdraw? It depends. We will spin wool and cotton both ways and you can see the difference between the two techniques and add another drafting method to your spinning repertoire.
Beginning spinning skills required.
Material fee $10
Students should bring:
Spinning wheel and all its parts
TWIST
Yarn needs twist, without it we would just have fluff. The question is how much do we need and how much do we want? It depends! It all depends on how you are going to use your yarn; sock yarn needs more twist than yarn for a lace shawl. In this class we will practice controlling the amount of twist that goes into yarn so you can make the most appropriate yarn for your project. We will spin different fibers to see that twist is not a one size fits all proposition.
Beginning spinning skills required. Students should be able to spin a continuous yarn and be comfortable with their wheel.
Material fee $10
Students should bring:
Spinning wheel and all its parts
Lazy kate and at least 4 bobbins

Steeks for Scaredy Cats
Yup: we’re going to cut our knitting, no w(h)ine required. Be it stranded or plain work, cut steeks are (if you’ll allow for the pun) a shortcut for knitting in the round and can accommodate design aspects that might not be possible otherwise. But before we touch our scissors, we’ll stabilize our work, and explore finished (or not!) edges after they’ve been cut.
Skill Level: Adventurous beginner plus
Homework: Please bring to class a completed 6″ stockinette cuff (or flat piece) of 48 stitches in worsted weight or heavier yarn. It is optional to have used color work; plain stockinette is fine. Completed projects needing steeked finishing also welcome for consultation!
Materials: Contrasting yarn, needles used for work and one size down from work, crochet hook of similar size, scissors, a few yards of sock yarn (the kind with nylon or spun from long wool).
Elizabeth Zimmerman’s Percentage System
It’s hard to beat the classics. Elizabeth Zimmermann’s Percentage System stands the test of time, offering a basic and foolproof guide to fit in both traditional and modern silhouettes. In this class we will demystify the fundamentals of gauge as it applies to garments, and follow in EZ’s footsteps to gain mastery over our own knitting to make sweaters that fit.
Combination Knitting
Learn the difference between Western and Eastern knitting styles, and how their marriage in Combination Knitting is the best of both hemispheres. With practice, you may knit faster and more comfortably than any other way of knitting. See what modifications one needs for lace and cable work, and what benefits Combination Knitting wisdom brings to everyday technique even if this doesn’t become your favorite way to knit.
Skill Level: beginner
Homework: None
Materials: Knitters need only yarn and matching needles

You’re confident with basic stitches and construction techniques? In this workshop, I’ll try to guide you through some techniques to expand your skills and take your knitting to the next level – I’ll take you on a (knitting) trip from the top down – a method that enables you to try your sweater on from time to time to check the overall fit while you’re knitting.
We’ll discuss different ways of knitting a sweater from the top down and learn some useful tricks.

Materials: Notebook and pen, knitting yarn and matching circular and double pointed needles (dk or worsted weight will work best), safety pins or locking stitch markers, darning needle, crochet hook (same size as knitting needles) and some waste yarn.
Homework:
1.: Neckband (starting point for short row use in neck shaping): cast on 60 sts and join to knit in the round. Work 4 rounds in 1×1 Rib (k1, p1), then knit 1 round. Stitches should be left ‘live’ on the needle to be able to work from this point.
2.: 2 tiny rectangles – provisionally cast on 10 sts for each of the rectangles and work 10 rows in Stockinette stitch. Stitches should be left ‘live’ on the needle (or holder/scrap yarn).
