Meet Josie Sutterer: Hello! I would love to teach you how to knit or crochet! I am familiar with crochet basics but knitting is where I shine. A childhood friend taught me crochet basics and I picked it up again during covid. About a year and a half ago I taught myself how to knit. Since then I have made sweaters, socks, and lots of other fun things!

Meet Becky Livigni: Hi, I'm so excited to teach you about the magic of knitting and crochet! I have been knitting for 7 years and crocheting for 4, all self-taught from youtube videos. Knitting has always been a way for me to relax and take time away from screens. I love making wearables - sweaters, tees, and socks, oh my! But I've also made stuffed animals, blankets and plenty of gifts for friends and family. I'm always learning new techniques and cannot wait for you to join me!

Meet Dru Bertels: Hello! I’m so happy to meet you! I’ve been a fiber artist for nearly 10 years with experience throughout childhood. I learned in scouts and from my granny, and now I pass on the knowledge! I primarily teach knitting and crochet, and everything from clothing to chickens! I believe the best learning tool is staying interested in your craft. I’m on social media as Druida Designs. 

Meet Kelly Kreutzer: Hi there! I'm excited to help you discover the basics of knitting and crochet. My journey began in 2023 when a TikTok inspired me to pick up a hook and teach myself how to crochet. Two years later, I added knitting to the mix, which is my current passion! Along the way, I’ve created everything from cozy sweaters to stylish bags and accessories, and I’d love to share what I’ve learned with you!

Meet Becki Bryant: I’ve been crocheting since I was a child and knitting for most of my adult life. I also enjoy weaving, hand sewing and spinning my own yarn. I have experience in many different styles: Fair Isle/Colorwork, Amigurumi, Double Knitting, Socks, Blankets, Afghans, Cowls, Scarves, Cable Knitting, Shawl Knitting, and modifying existing patterns to fit your style. Whether you’re interested in a private or group class, I can help you figure it out. “Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere” -A. Einstein
