All About Ravelry!

June 16th, 2009

Ravelry is a great website devoted entirely to knitting and crochet. If you’ve heard of it and have been waiting to understand what it is all about, this is the class for you. We are having a 2-session Ravelry class. The first session will cover the benefits of joining Ravelry, getting started with creating your profile, adding your stash and projects using Flickr to upload your pictures. It will also include pattern and yarn searching. The second session will cover selecting favorite designs and queuing your projects. This second session will also cover everything about the forums that you have ever wanted to know. To find the details for this class, please check out our class schedule on our new website. Jocelyn Grayson will be running this class – some of you will remember Jocelyn from when she worked at the store and we are delighted to have her come back and shareher deep knowledge of Ravelry and all it has to offer. The two sessions will be Sundays, July 19th and 26th from 3 pm – 5 pm and the best part is the price for the class – only $25. If you can only make it to one sessionthe fee is $15 per session. Students must have active Flickr and Ravelry accounts. You’ll need to allow at least 4-5 days for your ravlery account to be activated. You can bring a finished project or yarn that we canphotograph and add to your profile. Please bring your laptop if you have one. Just let us know in advance so we can make sure we have sufficient extension cords.
