OK, they&#8217;re all intro workshops, but you&#8217;ve got to start somewhere, right? (And if you want more advanced workshops, have your LYS get in touch!) They&#8217;re mostly clustered around the same time, but they&#8217;re far enough apart (geographically and market-wise) that it&#8217;s unlikely they&#8217;ll step on each other&#8217;s feet. Sorry &#8212; that&#8217;s just how it worked out for some reason.<\/p>\n<p>First, on Thursday, Feb 20th, I&#8217;m presenting to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bostonknitting.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Greater Boston Knitting Guild<\/a>, and then teaching an intro workshop. To get into this, you&#8217;ll have to be free during the day on a weekday, but like I said &#8212; different markets in different areas. This is Boston&#8217;s \u00a0major TKGA-affiliated guild and it&#8217;s a great honor to be asked to present to them.<\/p>\n<p>Second, on Saturday, Feb 22nd, I&#8217;ll be teaching an intro workshop from 1-4pm at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.russellsgardencenter.com\/wayland_winter_mkt.html\" target=\"_blank\">Wayland Winter Farmers&#8217; Market<\/a> and Fiber Day &#8212; so for those in the Boston Metro West area, this is your time! It&#8217;s also quite a deal, and you can <a href=\"http:\/\/dk-wayland.eventbrite.com\" target=\"_blank\">book ahead online<\/a> (or you can show up and pay at the door if there&#8217;s still room)<\/p>\n<p>Third, for those who live in my actual neighborhood, I&#8217;m teaching at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mindseyeyarns.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mind&#8217;s Eye Yarns<\/a> on Monday, Feb 24th in the evening (from 6-9pm).<\/p>\n<p>Fourth, I&#8217;m going to be at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.commoncod.com\/fibercamp\/\" target=\"_blank\">FiberCamp Boston<\/a> the weekend of March 15 and 16. The workshop I teach there will be more of a tasting &#8212; but for less than the price of your average single workshop, you can try out a whole bunch of new skills or even teach your own. It&#8217;s all about skill-sharing at FiberCamp!<\/p>\n<p>Finally, for those of you further out but still in the Northeast, I&#8217;m teaching at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yarn.com\" target=\"_blank\">WEBS<\/a> on the weekend of April 12 and 13, and at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.interweaveknittinglab.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Interweave Knitting Lab<\/a> from May 15-18.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of my local peeps have been watching me bounce all over North America to teach double-knitting workshops and wondering, &#8220;When is he going to come back and teach us?&#8221; Well, Boston-area folks, wonder no more.
