Our next meeting will be Tuesday, April 16th from 6:00 – 8:00pm in Conference Room A at the Richland
Library.
Yay! We’re back after that snowy weather.
Knitters turned in 13 squares for the Richland High School Afghan. We are on our way, we need 20, 24 or
25 squares to make this afghan for donation to the Richland Summer Reading program. I am redoing the
Desert Fiber Arts webpage with all the patterns that Lindsey created for our group. I’ll send an update when it is
finished. https://www.desertfiberarts.org/by-the-book-knitters-pattern-page/
The last leaf was turned in last night so I will start blocking and re-blocking all of leaves and sew them into
our gorgeous shawl. I’ll bring it to the meeting in April.
Show and tell had the Clincher Shawls, Celestine Sox toy, Socks 1 and 2 at a time and a Jimmy Beans
Cowl. There was also set of 2 adorable baby sweaters size newborn and 6 months.
