January 3: Colorwork Workshop

Join Kate and Laila to learn how to use two colors of yarn to follow a chart and create a “speed swatch.” In this class, you’ll gain the skills and confidence to begin your own stranded colorwork project—and your finished swatch can even double as a cozy mug rug! Charts will be provided and students will bring their own yarn and needles to work with. This is an in-person class at Marine Mills Folk School!

Saturday 1:00 - 3:30 pm

August 6 - 13: Singla Strand Norwegian Knitting Retreat

Singla Strand (beach in Norwegian) is a creative retreat for fiber enthusiasts, looking for a rare opportunity to visit a unique destination where wool is a way of life. Days will be filled with time for personal projects, group meals, walks on the beach and inland, bonfires, and dips in the sea and sauna. There will also be guided creative sessions in natural dying, felting, and more with all materials provided either outside or in the barn studio.

This retreat is hosted by Starlight and Storm at their 'Singla' property on Arnøya in Northern Norway. There is very limited space (6 attendees), but we are hoping to host this again possibly in 2027!
