Unsure whether Zoom classes are for you? Here's a testimonial from one of my students:
I truly enjoyed this Colourwork class. Rebecca’s instruction was extremely clear and she was able to very effectively communicate all the instructions and guidance I needed even via the Zoom platform! I learned skills that have opened up all kinds of new possibilities for my knitting project choices! Super happy I took her class! V.J.
