Maggi Jackson has made a life in designing high fashion knitwear. She works in the traditional linens and wools of her Irish homeland, but her design style is definitely not traditional. You are invited to join us for an evening of knitting inspiration and Irish humor.

Sunday, April 6

Ireland to Spain
Matadors, flamenco dancers, and rows upon rows of olive trees—Maggie shows how Spanish influences inspired her new stitches. Discover what you can create just by looking around you. Work samples in 2-colored frilled tubes, colored bobbles, twisted split, and picot tubes, then use your pieces in a shawl, pillow, purse, wall hanging, or as attachments to a sweater. Think outside the box! This class is intended for knitters with previous Maggi knitting experience.
Class Fee: $80 includes lunch
$20 yarn pack fee
