About

This adult & youth co-learning class is designed for intergenerational learners to work together. Each participant will make their own pair of mittens from “upcycled” felted-wool sweaters and fleece lining. The result is a unique, zazzy pair of mittens that reflects each student’s personal style.

Starting with making a pattern for their own hands, students will cut wool and fleece, sew the mittens and liners together, and embellish their finished pieces with buttons or decorative trim!

Students must have basic hand-sewing skills, as the cuffs and thumbs can be fussy. All materials will be provided.

Age range: Kids 10-17, Adults 18 and up
