    I learned much more than I expected to. The instructor, Kara, was positive and supportive, and able to work with each student's learning agenda. The atmosphere in the shop was great. All in all it was a wonderful introduction to weaving and I would recommend it to anyone interested in learning to weave.

    Really enjoyed the class Cara was attentive to all of our needs, giving personal attention to each of us. She was patient , encouraging and knowledgeable and allowed time and encouragement for each of us to develop our own creative project. Made me want to take and additional class. However I would like the option of being able to bring in our own yarn.
