Section background colors denote knit, crochet, color & design, machine knitting, or group meetings. These specialty classes are scheduled in a pay-per-session arrangement. Better than a "Sit-'n'-Knit" these classes are focused, educational, and productive. Get a closer look by downloading your copy of the All Points Yarn Class List. Specialty classes are 2 hours long and may require a few special materials, books or a pattern, and perhaps some advance preparation. In-person or telephone pre-registration is required; no walk-ins. Students may repeat any session or continue exploring their topic each week at the per session price, or conclude with after one session if they are satisfied with their understanding and progress. How cool is that! One session to understand the fundamentals of some very fun knitting and crochet techniques. If you have any questions concerning the individual topics, please contact All Points Yarn. Expert Repair at Your ServiceAll Points Yarn provides expert knit and crochet repair.
