September Meeting

Welcome back to our new year. Our first meeting for the year will be at the Bob Duncan center at 7:30 on 23 September. As usual, the doors will be open ahead of time for you to come and knit and chat.

This year we are asking each member to choose two coordinating yarns (about 4 skeins of each, preferably easily washable) to make an afghan. Each month we will receive a new pattern to make an 8" square with a different stitch pattern. In April we will put these squares together, hopefully to be given for charity. The first of these will begin with the Blocking program taking place this month. Blocking is an important facet of any knitting and will greatly help us in making consistent blocks.

There are also several issues to be discussed in our business meeting, such as changing the start time of the meeting and open officer positions. Come and cast your vote.

May Banquet

Our May meeting will be our annual Spring Banquet at Café Daired at 6:30 PM.

Also, remember that starting in June we will be having Sit and Knits instead of our normal meeting.

Maureen Mason-Jaimson Workshop

Just a reminder that our next workshop will be 14-15 November with Maureen Mason-Jaimson. The three topics we will be covering are as follows:
1) Destination Purse
2) Collar Obedience Training
3) The Joy of Steeks

The cost this year will be $115. Please talk to Joy if you are interested.

April Meeting

This month's meeting will be on 22 April at the Bob Duncan Center. Pat Coulter will be sharing a program for us on Yarn Substitution. This is our last programmed meeting for the year, as next month is our banquet followed by three Sit and Knits at member's homes over the summer.

March Meeting

Our meeting for March will be on the 25th at the Bob Duncan Center at 7:30. Karen Scarberry will be presenting on color. As always, the room will be open beforehand for chatting and knitting. It's a wonderful time to see what others are making.

February Meeting

Our meeting for February will be Tuesday, 26 February at the Bob Duncan Center at 7:30. Kate Rayburn will be presenting the second part of 2 Socks - 1 Needle. Also, we will be having sandwiches before the meeting during our informal social time beginning around 6. Come and enjoy yourselves.

Mark your calendars as our workshop for next year has been scheduled! Maureen Mason-Jamieson will be here to teach on 14 and 15 November. Topic and cost yet to be determined.

January Meeting

Our meeting this month will be on 22 January at 7:30 at the Bob Duncan Center. As always, the room will be available beforehand for showing off your work and catching up.

This month we will begin a 2-part series on knitting two socks at once using the magic loop method taught by Kate Rayburn.
