Make Your Own Ugly Holiday Sweater (Beginner Felting Class)
Details
The holidays are not a time for good taste. They’re for gathering around a table with excellent company and doing something questionable to a perfectly respectable sweater.
That’s why Capitol Hill Stitch n Bitch is hosting a make your own ugly holiday sweater party! Bring a sweater (wool or cashmere) and our instructors, Amy Hale and Ren Han, will teach us how to stab a design onto it using needles and wool!
Yes, it’s as fun as it sounds! 🕎🎄
The design will be entirely up to you whether you would like a tasteful little holly sprig or a giant middle finger your family will discuss for years. You’re holding the needle.
Join us and get that holiday aggression out on some wool instead of your siblings!
