Recent reviews of Finger Knit a Chunky Yarn Scarf Class

  • 5/5 from Sarah Tynan, attended Dec 2024: Crafty lounge is fantastic—for all ages. My tween, my 7 yo boy, and their 20something babysitter all loved it and everyone wanted to go back the next day to make another item. I had gone before with my son and a large group of 2nd grade friends and the instructors were clear and patient and everyone had a blast. Such a very very welcome change from everyone wanting a phone or video game etc. beautiful soft yarn in great colors.
  • 5/5 from Sena Hudleston, attended Nov 2024: We had a great time at our Chunky Yarn Scarf class. It was the first time for my daughter (8 years old) to try finger knitting and she loved it. So much so, that she wants to make more things, and she now calls knitting her new hobby. We came home from the class and with the extra unused yarn from the scarf, she made herself a headband to go with the scarf. Lori was very patient and made it a fun class for all! Thank you Lori, we will be back again!
  • 5/5 from Irene Rodriguez, attended Nov 2024: Such a fun class to do with the kids on a day off of school. The staff were friendly and patient. The kids had an awesome time. Thank you!!!

Hi there! ​I’m Lori!
When I was young, my favorite time of day was when I was allowed to draw, paint and make things. As I got older, this love never faded and knitting and crocheting have become my form of meditation, my personal escape. I love nothing more than starting a new project to keep my hands busy and my mind distracted. The sound of knitting needles becomes my mantra as my sweater would start to take shape. Completing a real alpaca sweater and saying, “I made that!” makes me feel proud of my accomplishment.
I went to business school and you can say I went from Kraft to craft! Meaning I worked in marketing at Kraft Foods and now I'm crafting! It's been a long career journey here and I'm so happy to be here now, sharing my love and joy in creating things from scratch.
I want to help you take your mind off things, learn a new craft and be social! Maybe meet a like minded person, a friend who likes to make things too. For me, friendship and crafting go hand in hand; that’s what The Crafty Lounge is all about—offering a space to meet new friends and share in this interest we love. Why not take a few minutes for yourself, get crafty and ​join a community of like-minded people. Think of it like your Book Club meets up with knitting needles.
​Please sign up for a workshop and join me in building this community to be inspired to discover your own creativity. Let’s craft together… Think how inspired you’ll feel when someone says, “You made that?!”
And, just a fun fact: I've run 25 marathons. And on top of that, I’m proud to have received over 50 five-star reviews from students who have loved crafting with me. Hope to see you in a workshop soon!
