Knitting 101 invites members to learn to knit or refresh what they’ve learned years ago. Also welcome are members who have UFOs (UnFinished Objects) hidden in their closet and need inspiration to finish them.  We meet the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays at 1:00 PM at Renate's ranch. Expect to spend about 2 hours.  There’s a $10 fee for the initial 4 classes which includes one ball of alpaca yarn and a set of bamboo knitting needles.  You can bring your own supplies, if you wish.

Knitting will continue after the first 4 classes and new members can join anytime.

June 2011:  Annette finished her sweater – a long term project. Annette is a very relaxed and creative knitter (and undoubtedly much more skilled than she lets you know). She goes with the flow, and the result is amazing.  She even ran out of yarn and didn’t get excited about that.  She managed to get more of the same dye run. Some knitters are just lucky.  Lynn decided on a different pattern for her scarf and we were all pleased with the result.  Cathy continues to work on her son’s blanket – lucky guy.  We visited the two new babies and the nest of future Killdeer birds (on the ground – we put a fence around it). Mom was appropriately unhappy about our being in the pasture. She pretends to be unwell by spreading her wings to look broken to get your attention away from the nest.

See you next time, Renate
