Nice class and location to get to. Was able to finish one scarf project and warp up for a second one. This class really helps to have the encouragement of the teacher while you will make mistakes but have the instruction on how to prevent and fix mistakes. I need the hands on and it helped me a lot.

Trudy is very patient with her students. She encourages your creativity while gently suggesting other ideas or color combinations. I appreciate her input as she is knowledgeable about creating a tapestry you will be happy with as an end result.
The environment at The Knitting Tree is sure to motivate your inner artist. Annette, the owner, is
also very helpful. The store is beautifully laid out with all kinds of yarns and everything you could possibly need that has to do with fiber arts and more! I highly recommend the classes and the visit to this amazing place!

Loved it. The space and the teacher were both excellent. Wish they sent you home with the loom but other than that, it was fantastic! Would definitely do another class with them!

I'm so happy to have found the knitting class w/ Knitting Tree. The teacher is great & shows helpful tricks for solving anticipated problems & doesn't move forward until you are absolutely confident in the skill. The class is paced for your own speed & the environment is welcoming. So many options for yarn choice & I received education on those types as well. Highly recommended.

I did not finish the class because masks were not mandatory, and I was the only one wearing a mask. I felt uneasy in the class and decided I could not continue with the class because of the mask issue. I wish I had been told in advance that masks would be optional then I would not have signed up for the course. I tried to contact Coursehorse after the first class to discuss the mask issue and request a refund, but I could not reach anyone.

I thoroughly enjoyed my class with Trudy Perry.
Trudy is a great teacher. She is both patient and knowledgeable.
She takes her time with you when teaching new techniques in weaving.
The class was held at The Knitting Tree. You can tell that this store is more than just a
place to buy beautiful yarns,etc, but it has a very communal feeling.
It is really a lovely environment and everyone is also helpful, kind, and friendly.
I highly recommend all classes at The Knitting Tree.
This was my third class and I plan to take more!

I attended only the first class. Instructor then on vacation for 2 weeks & stated she’d return to 5/23 class. We were invited to stop in to the shop those 2 weeks as someone would be there to assist. I stopped by on 5/09 And an employee did assist.
I signed up for class instruction & to meet other BEGINNER crochet-ers.
