Sock Gusset and Decrease Class Sun 6/22

Just a reminder that there will be a Sock Gusset and Decrease Class on Sun 6/22/08
1:30-4:00

The cost is $20.00

We will be reviewing how to pick up a gusset and how to decrease it. Bring as many socks ready for the gusset pick up as you have.

Anyone needing this refresher can attend.

July sock classes will be forming soon. There will be a Beginner Class, Socks on 2 Circular Class, and Toe Up on either DPNS or 2 Circulars so keep checking.

Hope to see you all at class!!

Just Got Back From La-No-Che

Well I made it, bugs and all. I have to admit I missed my knitters tonight!!! However, I really did enjoy seeing the boys in their environment. We saw them rifle shooting, and it poured so we were stuck there for a while then we went to the campsite, and OMG these boys are sloppy, you should have seen their tents, clothes everywhere!!!

Our troop did the flag ceremony. My son did the actual folding, I was so proud. I have pics in my phone so when he gets home I hope he can download it to my computer so I can share it with everyone. We went into the dining hall and all I can say is now I know why these kids spend a fortune on Slushes and Candy and Cookies.

Then some of the boys joined me in the common house at their tent site for some conversation on books and a "friendly" game of blackjack. We went to the Pow Wow, it is a show put on by the Indians, and it was fun. We went back to the camp site to say goodbye and on our way to the car we saw a cute little BEAR, holy ....... I was ok until I actually saw a BEAR near the campsite. I don't think I will sleep right tonight, even though I know there are tons of BEARS all the time around there I just cant relax.

I cant wait to get him home. The dogs are so confused. I will be a much better knitter by Sunday classes once my little man is home safe and sound.

Dont Forget No General Help Class 6/19

Just a reminder that on June 19th Thursday evening class has been canceled. I know that it is posted on the June General Help Session posting but I just wanted to make sure it was posted clearly.

I have family night out at La-No-Che Boyscout Camp where my son Alex is this week. Those of you who know me know that my idea of camping is a motel instead of a hotel!!! Alex loves this camp he is texting me approx. 15x a day. Its like he never left :)

I will miss everyone on Thursday night.

See you in Class

K I P Day a great Success!!!

A great BIG THANKS to everyone for coming out to Knit in Public Day. We had a fabulous turnout at Starbucks I met some great ladies that came as far away as Mt. Dora to spend the morning with us and I am sure there were more hearty travelers I didn't get to meet due to the fact I had to go get class opened up.

Eventually everyone migrated over to Sip & Knit and hopefully went on a shopping spree to take advantage of the yarn sale!! I know a few of you were "hung over" after checking out!! And you know who you are....

July schedule will be up shortly so if anyone is wanting to see a class appear get those requests in now!!!

Remember, KIP day is over but it doesn't have to be, Keep On Knittin' in Public!!! (it puts smiles on faces)
