Colourwork Christmas Stocking Class with Debbie Wilson of Sheeps Ahoy!

April 26, 2025 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$95

We are excited to host a Fair Isle knitting workshop with Debbie Wilson, owner of Sheeps Ahoy, the online purveyor of genuine Shetland wool in Canada. Join us to learn how to knit classic stranded knitting motifs using two colours at once. You’ll learn techniques to manage multiple strands of yarn at a time, keep tension even, and catch floats. In class #2 on May 7th, you’ll return to learn how to put in an afterthought heel to make your stocking complete.

Our project will be Eli’s Christmas Stocking by Meg Swansen, a timeless design from Schoolhouse Press. Deb will have kits of Jamieson & Smith 100% Shetland wool available to purchase for the class, and the kits will include the pattern.

Kits are $62 plus tax. Purchase one here.

Deb will also be here on Friday, April 25th from 6-8 pm for a Jamieson & Smith trunk show. Join us that night free of charge to see and purchase the full range of stunning colours used in Fair Isle knitting all over the world.
