Private lessons

If you can't attend a class or there's something specific you want to learn or you work better one-on-one, consider making an appointment for a private lesson. Fee is $15/hour for one person.

Policies

Preregister for all classes at the shop. Registration is on a first-come first-served basis. Class fees do NOT include materials, but registered students get a 10% discount off class material purchases.

Please ask for a materials list and a pre-class assignment (if any) when you pay, and have your materials before class starts unless you make prior arrangements with the instructor. Remember, due to copyright laws, we can't copy patterns for you, so don't forget them.

If you come to class unprepared, (i.e. you don't meet the prerequisites, haven't done the pre-class assignment or homework, or don't have the class materials), the instructor may ask you to leave. If this occurs, you will forfeit your class fee (no refund). Generally if you cancel for any reason, your fee won't be refunded. If you can't attend all class sessions your fee will not be refunded. If CDA Yarn and Fiber cancels the class for any reason, we will refund your fee. Our instructors are individual contractors, so check at the store as to what their policies are regarding refunds and makeups.

Some classes have a minimum number of students and all classes have maximums. Classes are scheduled for one hour unless otherwise stated in the schedule. Out of respect to teachers and other students, all classes are NO PHONE ZONES, so please silence cell phones.

Greeter schedule:

Bugsy: Daily
Erwin: Friday or Saturday
Chester: Wednesday (he likes the ladies)
Marley: Is always watching, so behave!
