 Workshops are held Sundays from 2-4pm (except for game days- only to provide you with the convenience of not dealing with parking and crazy Ravens fans!) and a few Monday evenings. The cost will be $5 if you bring your own supplies, or for $20 we’ll provide you with all-natural yarn and knitting and crochet needles. All levels are welcome! Dates are listed below.

Oct. 18th- Knitting & Crochet Basics: with Katya

Oct. 25th- Scarf Workshop: with Kate Glenn

Start knitting or crocheting with the most basic, but also most practical piece: the scarf. Different stitch methods available as well as instructions on how to create different types of scarves in addition to traditional ones!

Nov. 8th- Hat Workshop: with Kate Glenn

Learn to knit or crotchet a warm and practical hat for the winter months to come! Circular needles are needed if wanting to knit, crochet needles for those wanting to learn more basic hat structures… Get as artsy as you want and experimentation is encouraged!

Dec. 6th- Sweater/Jacket Workshop Pt. 1: with Katya

As the weather gets colder, learn to make a warm, wooly sweater or jacket that can be finished in time to give as a gift for the holidays… or wear to your holiday parties! All stitch patterns are welcome and instructions will be available for knit, purl, cable knitting and any other experimental stitching! Vintage buttons and trim will be provided free of charge if needed!

Dec. 14th- Sweater/Jacket Pt.2: (Workshop is held from 5:30p to 7:30p)

A sweater is more difficult to make so this will be the second half of the workshop so there will be time for you to learn everything, as well as expand on your design! Instructors will be available for help with projects and guiding all to finish pieces with perfection!

Dec. 21st- First Day of Winter Mittens: (Workshop held 5:30p to 7:30p)

Stitch and Bitch is HERE!!

 

old lady knitting

Stitch and Bitch has finally arrived!! An age old gathering of people ( started during the World War 2 era), wanting to get together, chat, gossip, share knitting and crocheting skills, patterns and projects… all the while enjoying each other’s company once a week.

With the love for old school craft coming back in a big way, Stitch and Bitch first blew up in New York City ten years ago and has since filtered its way to other major cities. We are excited and proud to present the first ever Stitch and Bitch in federal hill and the first ever Stitch and Bitch in Baltimore to be held in a boutique and local advocate of the arts!

 

So… bring your yarn, needles, crochet hooks and grab a place to sit, relax, listen to some local music, surround yourself with art and possibly get a homemade treat or two also!

 

Stitch and Bitch every Sunday starting October 4th from 11a to 5p… open to everyone and anyone!! POTLUCK SUNDAYS AS WELL!

*** get 10% off at Lovely Yarns in Hampden by mentioning us while purchasing materials for any of your projects!!
