Lazy, hot and humid summer days are s-l-o-w-i-n-g us
down.
That's all right. But, if you get a hankering for some
company while you knit,
we have a few classes happening this month in our air
conditioned studio.
Our MONDAY KNIT NITE group is tackling lace knitting now
and then fair isle knitting later this month
and they are chatting about sweaters and socks for the
fall.
Become a regular (there is no charge if you purchase
your yarns at Countrywool)
and vote on the NEXT project we tackle together.
Our FULL MOON FINISH class is a perfect place to tidy up
loose ends in your projects.
And registration opens TOMORROW, August 15, for our FALL
KNITTING weekend:
The best of Elizabeth Zimmermann' s KNITTING WORKSHOP
Retreat
Winter Clove Inn, Round Top, NY
November 16, 17 & 18,
2018
Last year we filled up in less than 3 weeks, so if
you intend to come, sign up right away.
Love a knit-a-long? Free patterns? You might enjoy the
AUTUMN'S SPRING CARDIGAN project
we are knitting on our COUNTRYWOOLERS Facebook group
(see link below).
I am posting the next installment of the pattern
there today.
