Tuesday Tea
About
A free weekly morning get-together for knitters and crocheters at The Nifty Knitter: bring a project and stitch alongside other makers. It runs every Tuesday, 10am–noon, at the shop, 317 NW Gilman Blvd in Issaquah, a 15-minute walk from Issaquah Transit Center (Sound Transit 554). There is no charge; the shop's free Friday-evening Sip and Stitch is on our calendar too.

New to textiles?
Textile classes range from weaving on a frame or rigid-heddle loom to embroidery, knitting, crochet, natural dyeing, felting and sewing a first garment.
- Check whether the class is for complete beginners or assumes you can already cast on or thread a machine.
- Single sessions usually make something small: a wall hanging, a hoop, a dyed scarf.
- Bring reading glasses if you use them; most fibre work is close-up.
Taking it home: Usually the same day. Larger pieces may be finished at home with the yarn or thread you leave with.
