Since we are waiting for the circular needles to come in, there was a change of plans this week. Linda demonstrated double-sided ribbing instead of Helix knitting. We appreciate Cynthia for ordering the needles for us.
Next Week
We will learn Helix knitting next week. Please have four colors. We will be using size 8, 9-inch circular needles.
Stitches West
The bus is full, and there is a waiting list! Please meet behind Raley's (near the Foresthill exit) promptly at 6:30 on Feb 19. Linda showed us the special project for the bus ride, it is a chain link scarf! Lorna Miser will be at SW teaching multiple market sessions and selling books in booth #814, the Coloratura booth.
I forgot to mention in class that cameras will be allowed at SW for the first time. However, there are a few vendors who are against it, so there will be signs posted outside the market place asking attendees and market-goers to please be considerate and ask for permission to take pictures or shoot some video of a vendor’s booth/merchandise. If you see a ”No Photography or Videography’ sign in a booth, we need to honor their wishes. In fact, they would like us to ask for permission (from vendors, designers, or anyone) before taking any pictures or record video.
Nola's Challenge
The March 3 due date is coming up. There will be prizes!
Linda started her fingerpuppets of Hamlet.
Wagon Wheel Rug
If you are interested in the special classes coming up in May and June with Nola and Linda, the sign up list is on the table.
Camellia City Stockinette Meeting
We have been invited to meet this special knitting guild on April 2, a Saturday, in Sacramento. Lorna Miser is the president. They would like to see our felted state flowers. Linda would like us to bring the celebrity icons, the knitted bras, finger puppets, and Nola's challenge too. We may meet for breakfast or lunch and drop in on a yarn shop.
