It's Spring.....kind of, actually, tonight here in MN we're supposed to get 6-9 inches of snow....May 1st...and a snowstorm....something about that is SO very wrong. I'm thinking about heading back into my craft room/hibernating hole, so these free Craftsy Mini Courses are right up my alley!
Here's what you get to choose from:
- Know Your Wool: Do you wonder where your yarn comes from? Learn about different types of wool and the individual characteristics of each.

- Modern Buttercream: Learn to use buttercream like a pro! Discover the tricks and tips to construct and create a beautifully finished buttercream cake.
- Short Rows: Don't fall short because you find short rows intimidating! Learn four different techniques to creating short rows, and discover how they can make shaping a knitted garment a snap.
