Join instructor Nichole Heady in learning the embellishment concepts from the popular "Embroidery on Knits" book by Judit Gummlich. Get hands on experience with the basics and techniques you need to embellish your own knitted or crocheted projects with woolen embroidery. This is your chance to make something handmade even more unique and personal. And it is SO much easier than you think!

Just bring either a piece of knitting or knitwear you’d love to embellish, or knit swatches to practice with. It's recommended that swatches measure at least 6-inches square if not larger. 
We will have copies of Judit’s book, “Embroidery on Knits” in stock if you would like to take one home for even more templates and inspiration.
