Morehouse Farm is the first superfine Merino sheep farm in America! Located in New York's Hudson Valley, we grow the softest farm yarn you'll ever feel. We spin our yarn in 5 different weights and have 118 colorways to choose from for projects that inspire creativity.
Each month, we host a class and a project dedicated to learning and practicing our craft.
Our community encourages each other with three guiding principles:
1) Be good to each other - and yourself
2) You can't say the word can't unless it's followed by the word YET
3) Behind isn't a status, it's only something you sit on.
We've got three different membership levels to help you pick the level of instruction and connection that's right for you!
When you join The Flock, we'll help you take your knitting to the next level so that you can knit absolutely anything you put on your wish list!
You'll have:
March: Socks that Fit YOU!
with Amy Snell the Devious Knitter and the Wanderly Socks
LIVE Classes Thursday, March 4 at 6:30 pm eastern
and Saturday March 6, 11 am eastern
Self-paced: all month long!
April: Shabka Socks, knitting in the High Atlas tradition
Choose your yarn! (Yes really)
I've done a pair with Gator Sport Yarn and our stash 4-ply, very different and completely awesome.
Irene Waggener will join us on April 3 for a casual lecture (you know, fun learning) about the High Atlas Knitting Traditions!
You'll also need Irene's book: Keepers of the Sheep
AND you'll find an amazing mix of culture, history, AND patterns you want to knit.
May: Targhiwin Leg Warmers
Also from Keepers of the Sheep, it's some fantastic colorwork.
AND it doesn't need to be leg warmers!
Irene will join us again to show us how she turned the pattern into a cowl and hat everyone in the family wants!
That's what I LOVE about this class thing... ask and ye shall have an answer. :)
When you join the Flock as a Shepherd/ess, you get a seat in our live virtual class AND project support for the next 30 days! That includes not only daily chat support, but the opportunity to come to studio hours for one-on-one help.
At day 25, you'll get an email reminding you that you can join in for the next month's project/class or cancel to sit that one out. Re-join at any time for any class!
