This is a great idea to spend time with your daughter and learn a craft together.

Knitting and Crochet classes

The Heritage Hut
2427East Douglass
Wichita, KS 67211
316-682-4082
Have you ever wanted to learn how to knit or crochet? Here's a great opportunity to learn. It would be a fun way to have our daughters learn right along with us. I went to these classes approx. 12 yrs. ago and Mary, the store owner, is the one who taught me how to knit and how to weave on a loom.
The cost of the classes are $2 per class plus the cost of your yarn. Mary asks that if you have children under the age of 13, a parent needs to be there.
Each class teaches one project. So you can go to just one at a time, anytime. Kim
Times are:
Tues. and Thurs. 1-3pm
Wed., Fri: 10-noon
Thurs. evening: 6-8
Sat. 2-4pm
