Classes, Special Events, and Trunk Shows

At A Verb for Keeping Warm, we offer a well-rounded selection of classes and curriculum so you can learn anything and everything about making textiles - from how to spin your very own yarn in our Spinning 101 class, to knitting your own sweater in Cocoknits Sweater Workshop, or sewing your own garments in one of Tasa Gleason's fabulous Garment Construction classes. At Verb, you can learn to spin, knit, quilt, sew, use natural dyes, and weave. 

Our small class sizes and individual teacher attention result in you creating a professional looking yet handmade garment. We have two classrooms, one indoors used for knitting, sewing, and spinning, the other is located outdoors nestled in the midst of our educational dye garden, where we hold our natural dyeing classes.

+ Our classes are small and led by the best textile instructors in the area.
