Description:

The goal of this class is for students to learn a sampler of fiber arts skills: knitting, crocheting, needle felting, cross-stitch, embroidery, and hand-sewing. In the first part of the school year, students will learn the basic techniques for each skill. In the second part of the year, students will select and work on a project piece for them to keep and use (project pieces will require additional materials to be purchased by the student). As students progress, they will also be introduced to project planning and using handcrafting as a devotional and meditative time.
