Hi Everyone! Welcome back! We've made it!
Today we are finishing our hats! If you aren't there yet, don't worry, we will keep this class up for a really long time. This last class is jam packed! You may want to refer back to it when you're doing other projects because of the blocking information.
I really had a great time creating this class for you and I am so grateful for all your enthusiasm! Thank you for supporting Cream City Yarn and knitting along!
See you in the store!
