Cast on at the 11th annual Slater Mill Knitting Weekend and Fiber Market, January 19 and 20, for two full days of knitting classes, stash-building, and home-spun inspiration.
Tuition-based classes are held on the second floor of the 1793 Old Slater Mill, and are limited to twelve students, to allow for more individualized attention from instructors that accommodates a range of skill levels, and better engagement among participants.
Free and open to all is the colorful Fiber Market, held in the old factory on the first floor. A popular weekend attraction, the Fiber Market brings in fiber producers and dyers, pattern-makers, tool makers, and other fiber art product vendors from all over New England. It runs on both days from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
