We kick off on Jan 1st. Join me on Zoom to sort through our WIPs together and decide together which projects get finished and which are doomed to be frogged. The Zoom link will be sent to my email list so make sure you are on the list!
We will continue to meet on Zoom every month to share our finished projects and re-evaluate our WIPS. Visit my events page for dates.
Prizes will be drawn at the end of each quarter and announced during our Zoom meetups.
Did I mention there are prizes?
As if your finished project wasn't enough, I will be giving away prizes all year long!

So What’s With the Frog?
Frogging in the fiber arts isn't about actual frogs, thankfully! It's a fun word for the act of ripping back your work to correct a mistake, or start anew.
Mistakes are okay, and even undoing can be a part of the fun in creating something amazing! So when in doubt just rippit.
The Q1 prize includes a two skein yarn bundle and a project journal.
