Long time no see

My my it has been a while since I visited the site. Shame on me, I know. I have updated the current class schedule and I will be adding more classes for the month September.

This September a trunk show of Christmas socks will be displayed at the shop in Grand Blanc. There will be reindeer, angels, Santa's and more. It is time to start thinking about Christmas especially if you are going to be making your decorations or presents this year. I know it sounds early but time has a way of slip, slip slipping away. It all comes around so quickly and it is such fun. In October Fur Yarn will be king. There will be a demonstration night to sample this great fur yarn..beaver and fox. Sign up to save your place and knit with this great fur yarn. Make a scarf or hat or just embellish with this natural fiber from Alaska. You can see the advertizements for this yarn in some of the fall knitting magazines and there is a pattern for a great scarf in Knit and Style.

I finished the Cropped Sweater on the cover of Vogue last week. It turned out great, finally something that will fit me. I am now working on the modular vest on one of the new fall magazines. I'm using a worsted weight hand painted cotton. wooo hooo. Looking forward to wearing this too.

It won't be long before the kids are back in school and new schedules will be worked out. I hope you make time for knitting.
