While supplies are not included in the price of the class, we find that almost all of our classes can be taken with between $15 and $30 in supplies. I've found "Needles in the Haymarket" located in Gainesville, VA to be very helpful.
-
Payment is due upon time of registration. We are unable to hold spaces in classes and workshops without prepayment.
-
Class fees are not refundable unless the class is canceled by the shop. If cancellation is made outside of 72 hours of class start time, you will be provided with a store credit for use for any future purchase with the shop. Classes with fewer than two students may be canceled or rescheduled for insufficient registration. Your registration is valid for the dates listed in the description and may not be transferred to other class dates.
If you have a last minute cancellation, please contact the shop. If we are able to fill your space, we are happy to provide you with a store credit, even within the 72 hour time frame. We understand that emergencies happen, so we will do everything possible to find someone to take your spot. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide a store credit or transfer if we are not able to fill your space.

LuxeFibers Studio follows the Federal Government when determining whether to cancel classes due to poor weather conditions. If these agencies close for weather, we will certainly delay or reschedule classes for that day. If we do not reschedule classes, but you do not feel comfortable commuting in the weather, please contact the studio to learn about Thursday evening's "Open Knitting" held the 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month from 6:30–8:00 PM ET.

You're welcome to join those in the community attending the Open Knitting for free help. Open Knitting is held the 1st and 3rd Thursday from 6:30 - 8:00 PM ET.

We want to be sure that no more than 6-8 students are in any given class. If the class that you want to take is full or isn’t being offered at a time that works for you, we can add you to the waitlist. To be added to the waitlist for a class, please send an email to info@tweedsidefarm.com.
