We are very happy to announce a surprise guest workshop.  Sylvia Olsen, knitter, author, and Cowichan sweater expert is doing a trans-Canada tour, and will be stopping in Toronto on 28 May.  We have been very fortunate to be able to fill in at the lost moment to host her knitting workshop on Coast Salish colourwork techniques at Creative Yarns.

This is a very rare opportunity to learn a uniquely Canadian indigenous knitting technique, from a true expert and master story-teller.  Expect a wonderful evening of cultural insight and knitting magic!

The cost of the workshop includes yarn and pattern for a Cowichan-style toque.

Date: Thursday, 28 May
Time: 6:30–9:30 pm
Location: Creative Yarns, 269 Ellesmere Rd
Cost: $65 (+ HST)
Skill level: Intermediate
