Hi,
My name is Windy Karpavage and I am the lead Fiber Art Instructor here at DCA. I also own Kaire’je
Studio –(pronounced kaire-jay, Lithuanian for left hand) a fiber arts retail shop located in Taylors Island,
MD. Although I can do many different types of needlework, Knitting and Felting are my passion.
I have been an instructor at DCA for four years, but have been knitting for over 25 years, mostly selftaught. When I was learning to knit it was difficult for me being naturally left handed and my teacher
right handed. This proved to be frustrating at the time, but in later years it did give me the ability to
teach right handed knitting. Currently I teach left and right hand knitting as well as how to read and
understand patterns. As an instructor I will also teach you how to customize a pattern and put your own
unique stamp on it.
