Greetings!
Thank you to all the Ravelry fiber-folk who reveled at the Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival a few weeks ago.
They collected a big basket full of yarn for donation to our charity knitters.
A big thanks to Beth Dooley for delivering the yarn to knitch this week, too.
'Tis the season when the need for warm winter items will increase at shelters and other community service agencies. So why not cast-on today for a hat or pair of mittens for someone in need?
We are pleased to announce that Arnhild WILL be with us this weekend. There are still 2 places left in the Reversible Knitting workshop. If you sign-up Thursday(or even Friday morning) you'll still have time to do the "homework" before Saturday!
