Classes for Summer 2009

ARROWHEAD SHAWL

Meg's sister Susan, is coming to town and will be teaching this great shawl class. It takes only one skein of sock yarn and is quick to memorize. "There are few patterns more beloved in knitting than the classic triangular lace shawl. Beginning at the center with just a few stitches, the shawl grows via paired increases, adding motifs on each side as the work progresses. A process that many knitters find irresistible to watch!" from designer Pam Allen. The pattern is available online at Knitting Daily and you will need to enter a search for the 7 Free Lace Patterns.

LACE RIBBON SCARF

Designer Veronik Avery says, “Lace Ribbon was meant as a portable project. Its pattern is easily memorized and a breeze to work on in otherwise wasted moments.” Meg has already started on this and it really is easy to memorize. It’s also kinda fascinating to watch it form; and this is from the easily distracted knitter!

MINDFUL KNIT OR CROCHET

Knitting is a really fine way to clear one’s mind. This workshop will be about filling your project with peaceful thoughts. There will be a minimum of talking and a maximum of peacefulness. A prayer shawl is a good choice of project but any project is ok. If you want to donate a shawl it will be gratefully accepted. We are in the process of finding a group to donate to.
