Two shoemaking workshops in May – make ‘n’ take basic plain turnshoes, or go wild and make fancy openwork ones with a bit more time and effort

May 9, Saturday, Robert’s house (Harford, near Dryden), 1:00pm-?

May 21, Thursday, normal A&S meeting at Crosston Annex in Danby, 6:00pm-?

Details: both of these workshops cover the same material. The general idea is that you will make one shoe during the class and then make the other one at your convenience. (If the Thursday-evening A&S session is not long enough to complete your first shoe, we will be able to leave everything there and resume at a later regular A&S meeting or reconvene at a different date of mutual convenience to finish it.)

RSVP to Robert via email at kps1@cornell.edu to reserve a spot — each workshop can accommodate about 7 participants.

There is a fee of $20 that covers leather for soles and uppers; needles; an awl; waxed linen thread; 13-page handout; etc. (If the fee is a hardship, we can work something out.)

The message is being posted to the Dominion email list, Discord, Facebook, and the Myrkfaelinn website. A reminder will be posted in early May.
