How a Passion for Fiber Arts turned into a Mission of Goodness!
Join Ali Pate from Road Trip Sock Yarn® for a relaxed Chat about her lifelong passion for fiber arts and how yarn dyeing became her “thing” as she runs her one-person, home-based studio! We will also learn about her mission to create a more environmentally friendly dyeing process. Ali wholeheartedly believes that every small, positive action contributes to a larger impact, which inspired her to launch her Greater Front Range Dye Practices.
The thrill of a good road trip often fuels her inspiration for dye creations. However, giving back to the community is a top priority and key motivator in her collection development. Along with her commitment to environmental sustainability and community connection, Ali has a deep love for animals. She’s excited to share details of the non-profits she's collaborated with on her journey to foster positive change.
Join us for this upbeat Fiberside Chat in this season of Thanksgiving! In true Ali style, she will make a monetary donation to a worthy not-for-profit with dollars generated from this event. Let’s get our yarn balls rolling together!

Hello Friend Vest Class
CLASS IN PROGRESS; REMINDER FOR THOSE PARTICIPATING
Wednesday, Nov 12 & Dec 3
2:00pm-4:00pm
$40
Hello Friend is worked top down on 4.5 mm / US 7 needles. First the top of the back is worked flat while shaping the shoulders and then the armholes. The back stitches are placed on hold while the front is worked. Stitches are then picked up on either side of the back shoulders while shaping the front neckline and then armholes. The two pieces are then joined to begin working in the round. A purl stitch between the front and the back pieces adds the illusion of a side seam.
It can be finished plain as shown or with embroidery embellishments (techniques will be shown in the class).
Price Includes Pattern and instruction. Meets twice

Statements without Words: How Fashion gives Voice

Our stories are never only our own, but shared experiences. Join Alicia as she turns the pages of fashion- not solely personal style-but a mode of communication. She will reflect on how her personal style has transformed over the years, sharing photos and fun memories while also connecting it to her work as a knitwear designer. This talk will be full of cringey moments, clarifying moments, and most of all- relatable moments. You will find connection and warmth in this Fiberside Chat!

Despite the changing times, the traditional construction methods remain the same. Join legendary Shetland knitter Hazel Tindall for an in-depth look at Fair Isle yokes and how their construction results in a comfortable fit.
