commuknity loves kids!

We love knitting for kids. Those toys, hats, blankets and clothing for babies, toddlers and kids of all ages are so much fun to make for showers and gifts.

We love to inspire kids to become knitters and to enjoy the craft. We love the intergenerational aspect of needle arts and are thrilled when grandmothers, mothers or aunties bring their kids in to the shop to introduce them to the joy of creativity.

commuknity continues to offer a variety of programs to meet the needs of the children in our community.

Summer Fiber Craft Day Camps

Children ages 9 to 11 will have fun-filled afternoons exploring fiber crafts surrounded by yarn and inspiration at commuknity.

Knitting, needle felting, wet felting, Kool-Aid® dyeing, and jewelry making are among the activities that campers will enjoy. All knitting instruction will be individually tailored to the child’s experience and interest. Everyone will come away with finished fiber craft projects each week.

We are offering one-week sessions throughout the summer. Sessions can be repeated as many times as campers chose. A discount for consecutive sessions is available. Different projects will be offered at each camp session.

Our camps will be held in our spacious working studio in the shop. Camps run Tuesday through Friday, 1 pm to 4 pm.

Fees are $100 plus materials for one session and $190 for two consecutive sessions plus materials. All sessions include a snack. Download PDF brochure
