We found a small blanket that was knitted with a finished look of a beautiful orange gradient and a very soft little blanket, that made us ask about learning how. It turns out that Nan’s Needleworks also offers one-on-one knitting and crochet classes, as well as group classes that kids absolutely love. What a fantastic idea. These group sessions make for fantastic party ideas, allowing children to engage in fun and creative activities.
This place just might be the best-kept secret in the Marble Falls and Horseshoe Bay area. There’s so much to learn and so much fun to have there.
