Make a Nålbinded Mug Cozy IN PERSON
February 21 @ 6:00 pm - February 28 @ 8:00 pm
Nålbinding is a fabric creation technique predating both knitting and crochet. Also known in English as “knotless netting”, “knotless knitting”, or “single-needle knitting”, the technique is distinct from crochet in that it involves passing the full length of the working thread through each loop, unlike crochet where the work is formed only of loops, never involving the free end. It also differs from knitting in that lengths must be pieced together during the process of nålebinding, rather than a continuous strand of yarn that can easily be pulled out.
Taught by Textile Artist John Hitchner, you will be making a mug cozy using the oslo stitch.
Two Sessions from 6:00pm-8:00pm, Feburary 21 and 28th, 2024
Tacony LAB Class Enrollment and Attendance Policy
Attendance Policy: We understand that traffic and other delays happen, however we request you to be on time to our events. We have a 15 minute grace period. If we are not notified and you are more than 15 minutes late, you may not be permitted to join the class. Our classes are only 2 hours long and it is difficult to catch up students when they are late.
The Tacony LAB’s classes are unique in Philadelphia: we do not charge tuition or any sort of fees for any of our classes.
Our classes are popular and often have wait-lists. If you enroll in a class, please commit to attending it!
How to enroll in a Tacony LAB class:
• You may enroll IN PERSON at the LAB beginning 3 weeks before a class first meets. Please check the “About” section of the LAB’s Facebook page for open hours or call the LAB at 267-686-7420 to hear the hours.
• You may enroll online using Eventbrite beginning one week before a class first meets (provided there are still spaces) by visiting our Eventbrite page: www.eventbrite.com/o/the-tacony-lab-community-arts-center-1…
• You may come to the first class and enroll at that time, providing space is available. For same day enrollment, please arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of the class.
Only one registration per person will be accepted. Each student attending the class must register with their name and email address. Multiple registrations under the same name will not be honored.
If you enroll ahead of time and do not attend the first class, you will be removed from the roster and your place will be offered to another student.
