Masses of Classes!

From the first opening day, everyone has been asking about classes! Sunny loves introducing new learners to the world of knitting and crochet, and our classes have been steadily getting larger--and more fun! We've also started offering technique classes to intermediate and advanced students, and a good selection of project classes for those who have learned the basic skills and are ready to MAKE SOMETHING!

Class schedules for May and June can be found on our website, http://www.sunnysideyarns.com/ , under the tab Classes. Sunny hopes you will check it out and sign up early to reserve your spot.

Those requiring evening classes are encouraged to send us an email at sunnysideyarns@gmail.com or give us a call at 272-YARN (9276). We'll arrange a class or two in the evenings for your convenience.

Sunny Side Spinners!

On the first Wednesday of every month, Sunny hosts the Spinners' Guild at SUNNY SIDE YARNS on Depot. From 11 AM - 2 PM, spinners who make yarn by hand gather to share knowledge and friendship! Here are some photos from the May 4th get-together.

The Spinners' Guild was organized by Liz Cooper of War Valley Alpacas:

 Even Pam tried her hand at the complex skill, using a wheel loaned by Heidi:



Wes brought a unique wheel (look how big it is!) and demonstrated how it works. There is no treadle on this wheel, it is rotated by hand!

Heidi and Marci keep those wheels a-turnin' !

Sunny carries a small selection of raw wool and bags of ready-to-spin rovings, as well as balls of locally-produced alpaca yarns in natural and dyed colors from War Valley Alpacas. Each bag of wool (we really DO have "3 bags full!), is tagged with the picture of the alpaca it was sheared from. If you are curious about where yarn comes from, or are interested in spinning, contact any of the SUNNY SIDE girls at the shop!
