FESTIVAL OF SIAN - TRY A SOCK MACHINE & ASSIGNED POOLING ! (14yo+)

Sian's Yarns is a local business run by the amazing Sian (rhymes with yarn). Who will be doing a Circular Sock Machine (CSM) demo for us.  You will be able to have a go at creating a tube of knitted fabric using the CSM on the day.   Carolyn ( from CarnaMade ) will be there also.  She will turn your knitted fabric into a beautiful yarn pendant for you to take home.   You will also be able to sit and watch Mat knitting/crocheting some of Sian's Assigned Pooling yarn and you can cast on and give that a go yourself too !

MATERIALS PROVIDED

( SIAN'S YARNS)

Hi! My name is Sian, I'm a life-long crafter with a particular love of yarn and textiles. I love bright colours and clever yarns that turn simple patterns into cosy and functional works of art.

All yarn is hand-dyed in my home studio in South Australia using professional acid dyes for long-lasting colour and brightness. I also love to sew and make the cleverest little project bags around, using recycled materials where possible.

(refreshments provided, please let us know in advance if you have any allergies or dietary requirements).

(NOTE: Courses are for 14yo+ unless otherwise specified, not all trainers are experienced/comfortable working with children. There are also government compliance checks WWCC required for trainers who do work with children, only trainers who have valid WWCC checks are permitted to teach children under the age of 14 years.).
