Olga Buraya-Kefelian will be offering two new workshops in the coming months! The Super Bulky Sweater workshop in February features a brand new design knit out of super bulky yarn. She’s also offering a Brioche or Tuck Stitch Hat workshop in March featuring her new pattern Nobi-Nobi (you may have seen Danielle wearing this beautiful hat around the shop too!). Please note that a ravelry ID is required for both of these classes so you can receive the pattern. There are only a few spots left in each class, so don’t delay in registering!
