Class Calendar
The shop is open by appointment so just give us a call. Also, it is open the second Saturday of each month at 11am.
PLEASE READ BELOW...
Click on each hyperlinked/underlined class name for a full class description, syllabus and costs. Any supplies you will need to bring to class will be listed there. If you have any questions, please email me at leef "at" appleleeffarm "dot" com.
Call or email to reserve your spot in the class. I need a minimum of TWO people to make a class. I do not require deposits, and rely on your best intentions to keep class appointments. However, I do know very well that things can happen! Just please, out of consideration, let me know if you cannot attend as soon as you can. It can sometimes make a difference to a class that does not make attendance-wise, and a class that has a wait list. A lot of preparation goes into these classes to make your learning experience the best possible!
SPIN-INS - the second Saturday of the month!
We do ask that everyone that comes, please be vaccinated against COVID and in good health....
Spin-Ins are on the second Saturday of each month. We are open and start from 11 am until we decide to go home! ALL are welcome, new friends and old, to come and join the fun. Some days will have special events which will be edited below as we go. If any day is cancelled, it will be noted on the list below, so check here first. We are a hardy bunch and not much gets between us and our fiber!!!

SPIN-IN 11am COTTON DYE PARTY!
COTTON DYE PARTY!
Anything cotton; fabric, fiber, yarn, t-shirt, etc.
Be sure to first scour your cotton well! You can bring it damp. Have any yarn skeined and tied with at least 4 LOOSE ties. Any cotton fiber needs to be put in a mesh bag. Roving can be chain plyed or in a mesh bag..
Things to bring: a plastic bucket, jars for your dye liquid (one can be reused, rinsing well before each color), plastic wrap and a ziploc bag. Bring an applicator for the dye whether you want to use squirt bottles, spray bottles, sponge brushes, etc.
Join us for a day of working with your craft of choice and enjoying the camaraderie of like-minded friends. Bring a friend in need of fiber enabling.... Bring a show N tell! Show N tells are great for inspiring us and giving us ideas for our year of fiber crafting and learning. Already time for thinking on holiday knitting.
NOTE: NEW 21-micron Ashford Polwarth sliver

SPIN-IN 11am - Weeney Roast Time!!
Come enjoy the day! Bring a friend to fiber-enable. What's on the needles for holiday knitting? Bring your own wieners. I will have hot dog buns, mustard and catsup with paper goods.... If it is too wet for the fire pit, I have an electric indoor grill.
