Join us at Fiber Fridays!
We've invited back some of the amazing guests we've hosted at Fiberside Chats for ongoing classes to Fiber Fridays! Take a deeper dive into techniques, learn new skills and unwind your week with LYS in our 1, 2, & 3 hour classes on Fridays, hosted entirely on Zoom & recorded for your viewing enjoyment for up to 1 week.
"I did all the Fiber Friday this past fall. Every session gave me a learning experience, big, small or something I never thought about and now use. We can always learn something.
LIFE is GOOD!" - Nancy K.

Mary Ann Gebhardt: The Mindful Rhythm of Knitting and Crochet via ZOOM!
December 13, 2024
Discover the profound healing power of knitting and crocheting with Mary Ann. Experience each class as a journey towards relaxation and freedom from stiffness. Just like learning these crafts, developing your own unique style takes practice and dedication.
During our session we will uncover the therapeutic benefits of gentle hand and shoulder movements, specifically targeting the muscles we rely on the most letting you immerse yourself in the meditative practice of knitting and crocheting, guided by the soothing sounds of Tibetan singing bowls.

Short Rows with Bristol Ivy VIA ZOOM!
December 20, 2024
Short rows are a very handy way to add shape to your knitting in both conventional and unexpected ways. Use them to turn a heel on a sock, better tailor a garment to your shape, or add unexpected twists and turns to accessories. In this class we will discuss the mechanics of short rows, try out different short row techniques, and think about when and where to use them.

How it Works
"The class worked really well over Zoom. Stephanie did a great job of demonstrating the techniques needed, and had two cameras going so we could see her face and her hands while she was teaching. It was nice to interact with the other class members, too." - Cheryl A.
About Online Classes with Longmont Yarn Shoppe
We have identified a number of classes that lend themselves to being offered in a virtual classroom via Zoom. Our teachers are very knowledgeable and experienced in the topic they are teaching, and will be using 2 cameras for all classes (there may not be 2 cameras for KALs and CALS) so you can not only see and hear them, they can also demonstrate what they are teaching as well. Supplies must be shipped in advance of the class so please plan accordingly.
We recommend all students use a device larger than a phone to be able to see what is being taught.
We stand behind our programs. If you try online learning and decide it isn’t a fit, we will refund 100% of your class fee, or it can be transferred to an in-store class once we are open to the public again.
We do ask that you use yarn and products from LYS for our Knit/Crochet-A-Longs and our classes.
There are 2 reasons for this:
- We recommend yarn we know you will have success with. Learning a new skill is much more rewarding using the proper tools and resources. When students use materials other than what is suggested we can't assure your success.
- Frankly, we exist only with your support. We need our community to shop with us so we can be here for the long haul. We bring in additional inventory to support classes, in anticipation of student purchases.
