Hand Felted Teacosy
Niki will be showing students how to make felted tea cosies next Tuesday (15 January 2013) morning and evening. Tea cosies are, in my opinion, so beautiful and practical. You can bring along any decorations you’d like to add, for example buttons, beads, ribbon or any little thing that is precious to you.
Another great reason for making tea cosies is to support The Constant Knitter Tea Cosy Competition! The proceeds of the competition will go St Bridgid’s Primary School in Dublin 8. (Actually the tea cosies can be made however you like – knit, crochet, felt, sew, quilt – in fact whatever you want to do is ok with us). And for the coffee drinkers, caffetiere cosies are also welcome.
Details of the competition and entry forms can be downloaded from www.theconstantknitter.ie – just get the cosies to us by 31 January. They will go on display here in early February and there will be prizes!
Cost for the class, including materials, is E30. Please bring a big towel and bubble wrap if you have it.
To enrol, please contact Rosemary on 087 996 7197 or info@theconstantknitter.ie

The Fiberistas, individually known as Diane, Judy & Rosemary (The Constant Knitter) have joined forces to teach all levels of knitters, whether to cast on or bring your needles to the next level. The Fiberistas are taking a stall at the The Crafty Market on Sunday 7th March from noon to 5pm.
Diane has been turning fiber into handspun yarn with her drop spindle since 2005. Come visit her at the Crafty Market to see how fiber turns into your own designer handspun. She will have a selection of KoolAid dye packets and fiber to purchase.
Judy is totally passionate about knitting being driven by textures and colour. She specialises in felting and will have samples of her work at the Crafty Market to inspire you to pick up your needles and get knitting. In addition, she runs a range of knitting classes in Delgany, Co Wicklow.
Rosemary is The Constant Knitter and will feature her line of Garnstudio yarns. Also take a look at her selection Artesano, Manos del Uruguay, Irish and sock yarns. Feel the difference between Alpaca, cotton, and linen yarns.
Bring your knitting, get yourself a coffee and join The Fiberistas for a while either knitting, spinning or felting. Or if you would like to learn any of these crafts, we will be giving demonstrations and will be happy to teach allcomers.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Directions to the Crafty Market is linked here.
Diane, Judy & Rosemary
