Yarn Chats: Up your Fiber Game Discussion & Meetup

A monthly meetup for people looking to up their fiber game. We will get together with our current WIPs, exchange ideas and tips, and learn some new skills that you've been trying to tackle but just need a bit more confidence. 

There is a fee due to limited spot availability. There are no materials included in the fee, but you should expect to go home with some print outs and pattern suggestions with information on the days topic of conversation. There will be add ons and kits available for certain meetups.

If there's a topic you would love to see during the Yarn Chat Meetup - let us know and we will add it to our calendar.  If you have experience in these areas of discussion - we'd love to invite you to present at one of these discussions. Please email: info@scoutandskein.com to share your expertise and ideas! 

For anyone not local to Houston or can't make it to the shop, send me a message and we can set up a Zoom Link!
