Get a jump-start on National Hobby Month (January)!

Out with the old and in with the re-newed, as we craft our way into a green 2011! This winter, join us as we make beads out of paper and create new jewelry out of broken and neglected old pieces. It’s always fun to be eco-friendly at TCL! We’ve also added day and night sections of our knit and crochet workshops, in several different levels — something for every busy schedule.  So, start your year off right by treating yourself or someone you love (classes make a great last-minute holiday gift!) to one of our great workshops: TCL Class Schedule

We’re now collecting the chemo caps…

Thanks to everyone who’s been madly knitting/crocheting hats for our chemo cap charity event.  We’ll be collecting all the hats and donating them to a local organization in mid-November.  So, please drop off your hats at The Craft Lounge in the next few weeks.

Thanks again for all of your help.

Magic Loop Knitting Class – 10/25/10 @ 7:30PM

Do you hate knitting with double-pointed needles?  Well, Kathy will be holding a class next Monday that will teach you how to knit in the round without them.  It’s magical!  She’s betting that you’ll be so into “magic loop knitting” that you’ll be inspired to knit a toasty pair of socks.  Here are the details:

Monday, October 25 from 7:30PM to 9:00PM ($25)

We’ll be taking reservations for the class until Friday evening.  If you’d like to sign up, please call: 201/944-3311, e-mail: info@thecraftlounge.com or visit our handy-dandy website: http://thecraftlounge.com/.  I feel loopy already.

Calling all knitters & crocheters!

We hope you’ll join us on Saturday, September 25 at 7:30PM for a special charitable crafting event.  In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’ll come together to make chemo caps for neighbors in need.  Bring your needles and yarn or feel free to use ours.  We’ll supply a variety of hat patterns for crafters at all levels.

If you plan to come, please let us know so we can make sure to have plenty of snacks on hand! Just give us a ring: 201/944-3311 or e-mail: info@thecraftlounge.com.
