Hi Dear Stitchers,
*Fair Isle Club*
This Friday, June 19th, 5-7pm, is the first meeting of the new *Fair Isle
Club*! Please come join if you're interested in showing off your fair isle
or other stranded knitting, seeing other's stranded knitting, talking about
various methods, discuss color theory, favorite designs, yarns, patterns...
It's a great way to learn more about this beautiful technique or to share
your knowledge. Jessica, who's wonderful idea this is, will be your hostess
and she's very excited! A non-refundable $20 annual fee allows you to join
our monthly meeting from 5:00-7:00pm on the third Friday of every month.
Members will knit and chat, while also being able to *buy skeins of the
gorgeous Jamieson's Spindrift, and the ever-popular Dale of Norway Baby Ull,
Falk, and Heilo at 15% off*.
*Christmas in July!

Another of Jessica's clever ideas - She says "Ever get caught off guard
after Thanksgiving, wishing you had more time for knitting presents? Well,
say goodbye to sleepless December nights, binding off and weaving ends in
the wee hours of the morning! Knitting Etc has a host of new classes this
July to give you a great head start on your holiday knitting. Whether
socks, scarves, shawls or mittens, all the projects finish quickly and are
perfect for knitting in the warmer weather. You'll not only learn new
techniques and make new knitting friends, you'll be thrilled this
December!"
