Heads up, human resources managers! Are you looking for a fun alternative to the usual team-building exercises? Would you like to learn new skills, or combine team-building with a charitable activity? Stitch Cleveland has programs for you! We can create custom offerings, or choose from the following samples:
- Creativity Exploration
- Knitting 101
- Stitch a Story
- Charity Afghans or Scarves
We recommend knitting for technically-oriented professions such as computer programming, systems administration, etc. since knitting is very “binary” and easy to learn — knits and purls, zeroes and ones.
Stitch Cleveland partner Shannon Okey has taught more than her fair share of male knitters — knitting is mathematical and problem-solving-based. And, as a former stockbroker and technology guru, Shannon knows how to adapt her presentations to all-male teams, particularly in the tech sphere. We won’t be surprised if they want to stay after class!
Custom classes at no extra charge
Stitch Cleveland can customize any lesson plan to your team’s needs, just give us a call at (216) 220-4808 or email shop@stitchcleveland.com. Let us know the size of your team, tentative dates, and any other information that may be helpful.
Combine team-building with philanthropy or fundraising
To combine your teambuilding exercise with a philanthropic goal, we can teach you to make hats or scarves for local shelters, create a beautiful quilt for a fundraising raffle…you name it. Just let us know — there are no extra charges for custom programs.
Discounts
Repeat corporate customers receive an automatic discount on future bookings, so why not give us a try? You’ll never have to fall backwards into a klutzy coworker’s arms, do roleplaying games in public or suffer paintball bruises again!
