I grew up in John Day and always had a love of languages. Upon graduation I travelled and lived in various communities. Spanish became a second language to me during my two years serving in Peace Corps Costa Rica. I am now living back in the area with my husband whose native language is Spanish. We are passionate about teaching our 1-year-old daughter to be bilingual and I hope to share my love of the language with my hometown.

Jodi lee's passion for fashion, theater and the arts began at a very young age. She was highly involved in the theater program during her high school years (both on and off the stage) and found herself constantly designing and altering clothes. Her involvement in the arts and fashion world lead her to a small modeling career where she got the opportunity to live abroad in such cities as Athens, Hong Kong, Milano and more. After a few years of traveling, she settled in Los Angeles where the birth of SandBox Rebel (and her son, Aurthur) took place. SandBox Rebel sprung from the simple need for hip and inspired children's clothing. Being frustrated with what was on the market, Jodi lee rolled-up her sleeves, grabbed a pile of old band shirts and took to the sewing machine. Before she knew it people were buying her wears from her (self-made) diaper bag... then a store wanted an order, then another, then she opened her own store and, viola! Since then, SandBox Rebel has been featured two years in LA's Fashion Week, several magazines such as People and LA Kids, worked with several non-profits and started an internship program sharing the joy of fashion with countless others. She currently resides in John Day, Oregon where she is still up to her crafty ways designing, crafting, and teaching.

Discover the joys of sock knitting in this beginner-friendly workshop tailored for those new to the craft. Join us as we explore the fundamentals of creating snug and stylish socks from the ground up.

Throughout the class, you'll master essential skills such as using double-pointed needles and knitting in the round, all while crafting a delightful pair of toddler socks step by step.

No prior experience with sock knitting is necessary, but a basic understanding of knitting and purling is recommended. Get ready to embark on an exciting journey into the world of sock making with us!

I started sewing, embroidering, and crocheting when I was about 10 years old. Started quilting when I moved to Grant County in 2001 and knitting shortly thereafter. I am in love with all arts and crafts and have taken several classes here at the Arts Center including painting, pottery, and felt applique. I love sharing what I have learned with others and am excited about being part of the Fiber Arts department.
