Susan Mock is the Stitchin' Den Owner and loves to teach!

Creative Camps were introduced in 2006 and they have been a ball.  Great instructors.  Great projects.  Great environment. 
Great friends.  Great Food!!! Here are some upcoming Camps!

First, let me explain the purpose of a knit-a-long. This is a Creative Camp event which has someone there to help you start a designated project, help with problems along the way and help you stay on track so as you can also finish it.

The group is usually working on the same type of project, but they don't have to be identical. In fact, it is a lot of fun to have everyone working with differet yarn and different patterns.

There is no cost for this type of "class" if you purchase your materials from the stitchin' Den. If you want to work on a project using yarn purchased elsewhere, the charge is $20.00 per hour.
