Knitting News from The Flaming Ice Cube
July 14, 2015
Hope our summer is going well.  We have been busy with our shawl KAL on Tuesday mornings and Thursday nights.  It's been wonderful to see so many new shawl knitters enjoying the satisfaction of creating their first shawl.  It's not too late to join us! 

Tuesday mornings from 10:30 - 12:30 and Thursday evenings from 6 - 8 pm are now our Knit Lab time as well.  So if you have any questions on any Flaming Ice Cube project that you are working on, stop in for some help and some tea!

On Thursday, July 30th we will be holding our 'Fixing Mistakes' class.  Gain confidence when you learn how to handle the inevitable!  We will go over tinking, frogging, laddering up, laddering down, changing a knit to a purl and vice versa, what to do with an unexpected yarn over, and much more.  There is a small swatch to knit pre-class.  You can call The Flaming Ice Cube at 330-726-4766 or register online.

Make & Take is this week
At this fun event we will have a table set up with lots of Big Bad Wool's
latest yarn 'Weepaca' and pom pom makers. Select the supplied yarn(s) of your choice and make your pom pom. What, you've never made a pom pom? Well, never fear - there will be instructions and official 'pom pom assistants' present to guide you through the simple process. And, you will receive a free baby hat pattern where you can use your new pom pom! Then relax and knit in the knitting lounge where Michele will be available to offer guidance if you would like to begin making a hat.  And, of course, we will have refreshments!

Choose from two times:
- Thursday, July 16 from 1 to 3 pm
- Saturday, July 18 from 1 to 3 pm

You can call The Flaming Ice Cube at 330-726-4766, or make your reservation online.
New Weepaca Yarn from Big Bad Wool

Available in a variety of friendly colors, Weepaca is perfect for knitting booties, blankets, sweaters, hats and much more. It knits up at a worsted weight and the merino/baby alpaca blend feels soft against the skin.  Plus, you can machine wash it!

peace & deliciousness,
