Viking Knit

This technique called Viking knitting has been around for a long time, and is also now a method of creating wire jewelry.  It is technically not knitting, but closer to another fiber technique called naalbinding or nalbinding.  You probably know that knitting is one way of  creating fabric by pulling one loop through another, with the loops coming from somewhere along the length of the yarn.  Naalbinding is a technique of creating fabric by pulling the end of  the yarn or thread through loops using a needle.  The result, Viking Knit creates a beautiful base for jewelry as we will discover in this sampler class.

Our promise to you?

'some things looming' will NEVER cancel a 'sampler' due to low class registration.  What does that mean to you?  It means you can absolutely put this class in permanent ink on your calendar. 

We've heard the frustration where a favorite class got cancelled on you at the last minute.  We want you to know, know, know that isn't going to happen here.

Will it be awkward if I'm the only one there?  Oh. My. No!  We'll just have great fun with a little one on one time.  Ask around.  It's happened from time to time.

Not good at planning? Don't have a lot of free time?   We designed 'saturday samplers' for you.  You can save a little if you plan, but you don't have to.  If a class is popular, you might not make it in due to class size.  Coming early for a class or calling on Saturday morning to secure your spot is a great idea.  Popular classes will most likely have a second session on the same day so you should always assume you have a good shot at getting what you want.
