Fall is a great time to jump into a new fiber activity or hone the skills you already have.  Halcyon Yarn offers a great variety of classes – some meet just a few hours and some multiple days.  All are a great way to develop your skills, learn how to use different materials and make new fiber friends.

Sign-up for a class during our Annual Open House on Saturday October 10th and you’ll receive at least *10% off with a chance to save more! Take advantage of this opportunity to save.

We’ve highlighted several up coming classes (click through for full details), but be sure to check out our complete offerings on-line!
