Our Knitting Group has started . . .




We had our first meeting of 2007 this morning. Gloria came with her daughter who is still on Christmas break. This is Vanessa wearing the sweater jacket that grandma Anne knitted for her. Isn't it beautiful? I especially love the ruffles she added to the sleeves and bottom. There's a matching scarf that really makes it a great outfit. Way to go, Anne! ! !

Pat A and Lynn joined us for the first time. Margie came too and has completed the back of her sweater for Garry and is now knitting a cable in the middle of the front. Zachary also joined us and just didn't get why we were ooing and ahhhing over the cashmere wool Lynn brought with her. We told him it's something you are born with . . .

So next week all the kids will be back at school and hopefully Gina, Ricky and Nicki can join us. I will be moving my office upstairs tomorrow and hope to make some changes to our library area which will be right outside my new office. I'm thinking of converting it (just a tiny bit) into a KNITTING ROOM! So, if you are reading this and have any ideas or suggestions, please let me know. For starters I want a bulletin board and maybe some pictures of our handiwork. Again, any ideas are welcome!

Glad you visited the blog. If you are a knitter or want to be one - join us on Thursdays. It's lots of fun - especially with Gloria and Anne there!
