Save the Date for Crochet Classes with Dora Ohrenstein

November 22, 2011 | by LBYS Staff

Master Classes aren’t classes for masters; they’re classes with masters! Mark your calendars: Dora Ohrenstein will be teaching at Lion Brand Yarn Studio this February!

Dora is currently leading the Half Medallion Bag Crochet-Along at the Lion Brand Notebook (click here to check it out). If you’ve been following it, you know how much detail she uses when covering the ins and outs of creating crochet fabric. Don’t miss the chance to learn from her in person!

PLUS, book both of Dora’s classes and save over 25%! To get the discount, simply call to book on or after December 1, and tell us the promo code: Swatch Party.

On sale Thursday, December 1:

Dora Ohrenstein is a well known author of crochet books, a designer whose work has appeared in magazines such as Interweave Crochet and Crochet Today, and editor of the widely read online magazine Crochet Insider. She is also a singer and voice teacher who lives in Manhattan. Her new book is entitled Custom Crocheted Sweaters (2010 Lark Books).

Great Crochet Fabric With Any Yarn: Parts I & II

Think of this class as a totally fun swatch party that will teach you tons about how to get just the type of fabric you need. We will work with a variety of yarns, weights and fibers. Once you understand how to select the hook size and stitch pattern that brings out the very best in each yarn, you can make anything from feathery light shawls, to beautifully draped sweaters, sturdy outerwear and functional bags or belts.

Choose your favorite class, or take both: they stand alone and support each other. Book Parts 1 & 2 together for savings!

Tuition: Single class: $70 (includes $10 worth of yarn)

Tuition: Both classes: $100 (includes $10 worth of yarn) CALL TO BOOK AND USE PROMO CODE “Swatch Party”

Great Crochet Fabric With Any Yarn – Quality of FabricPart II:This section will be devoted to the quality of fabric that is the opposite of drape: structure. If you want to make a jacket that really keeps out the cold, a truly functional belt, or a bag that holds its shape, this class will arm you with the necessary knowledge.Sunday, Febrary 12

2:00 – 5:00 pm
