Latest Email Messages

The trip to Truckee and visiting Teri's place in Kingvale was so much fun that I still enjoy looking at the photos.

Here is a review of a few emails we received.

ARD Classes Confirmed
A couple of weeks ago Linda L sent us an email confirming the new classes. Linda has joined ARD (Auburn Rec Dept) to teach two advance knitting classes. The catalog comes out Sep 1, and those of us outside the city of Auburn can see it online. The website is to the left of this blog but the new catalog is not up yet. However, there are photos of the site and classroom. There will be three 12-week sessions for the school year with breaks at Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Our Thursday class will start on Sep 10 at 6 pm and end the first week of Dec. The same class is also going to be taught on Monday mornings with ARD at a different site closer to the DeWitt Center. The 12-week sessions are $65 for residents and $70 for nonresidents. A minimum of 24 students for each session is needed for Linda to keep these classes going so spread the news.

Linda will continue her beginning and intermediate knitting classes with Placer School for Adults.

Diana on Etsy
Diana sent us an email to announce that her shop, Knit Boutique, is on etsy.com. Please tell your friends, workers, and relatives about her shop. I have added it to this blog on the left side.

Gold Country Fair
Diana also sent us an email not too long ago that she will apply to enter our knitted icons into the Gold Country Fair in Auburn. The deadline is not until Aug so there is still time if you want to make one or another one.

Mini Me. I wore a kimono for Halloween when I was a young girl. This doll is smaller (9" with bun, 8.5" w/o bun) than our icons since I used smaller needles and baby yarn. I also made i-cords for arms and legs to finish faster, but they are not as strong as the tubes.



I heard from a few of you that you are not sure how to write a comment here. Just click on the little word "comments" down below on the right side. A comment window may pop up where you can do the following (also a security window may pop up, hit "yes"):
1) Type your comment in the box.
2) Type in the word verification as you see it.
3) Type in your email address/password or use the anonymous button. I think you have to have a Google account to put in your email address/password, but I don't think you need one to use the anonymous button.
4) Click on "Publish Your Comment."

Happy knitting!
