Our next meeting will be Tuesday, February 19th from 6:00 – 8:00pm in Conference Room A at the Richland Library.
Just a quick reminder! I need those leaves, if you have any at home please bring them to the February meeting. I need to block them and sew up the shawl for Merrie Greenwood. Remember if you knit a leaf this year you get into the 2019 Merrie Greenwood free in September.
Radcon is fast approaching. If you want to participate I need your Name, Email, Cell phone, Days (Fri, Sat or Sun), Time you will be there and Estimated seat in the chair hours you will be demonstrating fiber skills. You can email me this info.
Knitters took home yellow and green Richland High School colors for the 2019 Summer Reading Raffle Afghan. The big question of the night was how big to make the square – Make it approx. 8.5 inches or a tad smaller. Another question was where to find the pattern Lindsay created for us – https://www.desertfiberarts.org/by-the-book-knitters-pattern-page/ Start with the January patterns and by the time you get to December you will be a Knitter!
