Our Fix It class is designed to help you learn with confidence in a warm, welcoming environment. It is taught by an inspiring and knowledgeable instructor and limited to just six students, so you receive plenty of personal attention and support. You’ll learn new skills, ask questions, and connect with fellow makers while working on projects you’ll be proud of. The support doesn’t stop when class ends—the Apple Yarns team is always here during open hours to answer questions and help you keep moving forward with your project.
