It's here! Well… it's almost here… but close enough to have a little pre-launch celebration for my NEW Craftsy Class: Introduction to Crochet Cables
So some of you probably had a little clue that we had a class in the works with the folks at Craftsy but now we can let the proverbial cat out of the bag. WOOHOO!! As you can see, this class is a FAB fav topic of ours: Crochet Cables. We LOVE crochet cables and in this class I take you step-by-step through the process of how to make basic crossed stitches all the way through those glorious sweeping, turning, dramatic cables we all love. Along the way, I share all of my tips and tricks to make crochet cables fun and easy! The exciting part is I teach you all of this using a FAB project! You get to apply what you are learning right away without wondering how you are going to use these stitches in real life. 
Oh yeah… if you've been around here very much, you've probably noticed one of the small photos is of our WILDLY popular Woven Cables crochet pattern stitch. Yes, there's even a segment of this class where we walk you through the Woven Cables pattern stitch step-by-step! We designed this class with so much FAB information… when you are finished, you'll be shocked by how nimble your crochet hook is around cables!
My class Introduction to Crochet Cables is coming out REALLY soon! WOOHOO!! To celebrate, the folks at Craftsy are letting us give away FREE access to my class to one of our fans. That's YOU! All you have to do is follow this link to enter: Update 01/27/15: This giveaway has ended! Congratulations to Peta P for winning! Didn't win? That's okay!

The Shibaguyz Take Manhattan!Once again this year, Jason will be working his photography skillz at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York.

We will be conducting two workshops on February 14th: The Joy of Ribbing & Crochet Cables: Put a little twist in your stitches! At the time of this post, seat are almost sold out!

Crochet, Knitting, and Photography Classes by Shibaguyz Designz Stitch On! S&J Class Details and Registration Information for Shibaguyz Designz Classes at Knit Fit 2014NOTE: This post was updated on October 22, 2014 to reflect the new date for the Motif Madness class. All information in this post is correct as of October 22, 2014. - S&J  It's that time again… Back to School! Okay… not exactly THAT kind of school but it is time to head back into the classroom and build those stitching skills! As a designer, I spend most of my time in the studio, sketching, writing, and… well… doing designy things (yes… I made up another word…). When Jason isn't in his studio, he is always running off to shoot photos of some event or someone marking a momentous occasion with a photo session. As teachers, we get to interact with crocheters and knitters who look to us to help them build their skills. Whether they are hobby stitchers or looking to become designers, it is always a thrill for us to take a classroom full of students on a journey during a class session. Fortunately, we have the opportunity to teach at some great events and Knit Fit right here in Seattle is one of our favorites. This year we are honored to be teaching for the third year at Knit Fit and we have two FAB classes to share with y'all. This year, we are proud to be offering a student favorite: Fashion, Fit, Form, & Function; as well as a new-to-Knit-Fit class: Motif Madness. Here is a little about each class and the links to register.
Registration is open NOW and classrooms do fill up from time to time so be sure to get your registration in early to reserve your space. You can register for our classes by clicking on the photos above and then clicking on the "REGISTER NOW" link. Or, go to http://knitfit.info and register from there. We do love teaching and we always have a lot of fun in class. We hope you can come be a part of the learning process with us! See you at Knit Fit! Stitch On!
