Color Techniques III Wk 6

I forgot to wish April and May knitters a Happy Birthday. Here it is: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Finger Puppets
The final two finger puppets are finished! Diana took them to the State Fair on Fri.

Winnie the Pooh by Linda L.

This Little Piggy Went to Market by Claudia

Fair Isle (FI) Projects
We continued the Fair Isle technique using both hands, and Linda went over the two Tam patterns. We received the tam pattern with the clock design which we read in class.

Next week is the last time for Fair Isle. Linda decided to wait until next week to go over FI with corregated ribbing and FI with cables. Bring cable needles and two colors of yarn.

On May 26, we will knit an entrelac sample.

Nancy's Fair Isle Bag

Coin Purse by Irene

Head Band by Rosemary

Vickie made these two bags. One is Fair Isle, and the other is intarsia felted.

Samples of Fair Isle Projects by Linda and Students. Linda showed us the book in the photo that showcases some of her gourd baskets. She is also a hand model for several of the pages.

Need Milk Cartons
Linda will be teaching how to make this milk carton wallet for summer camp in Florida. She is in need of milk or juice cartons.

Teri's basket made out of recycled materials such as milk carton, plastic bags, electric/phone wire, computer parts, etc.

Wagon Wheel Rug Class
This class will take place on the last day of class with Linda's sister, Nola. It is not too late to sign up. We will also have a potluck that night.

Summer Retreat
Linda recommended that we have the retreat before Aug 28 without her. Debi is looking into the dates for this event. Linda L. will send us a link to the summer house in South Lake Tahoe.

Fall Session
The theme for the Fall classes is Hearth and Home. Linda hopes we will all sign up next season.

Show n Tell

Baby blanket by Rosemary

Debi made the scarf that she is wearing. I like the group photo.

Peace, Love, Knit!
