Photos as promised
Here are photos of some of the new yarns I wrote about yesterday. First is Lang’s Estio,a cotton/wool blend that knits up at 4.25 sts. to the inch. The colors are beautiful! There are many patterns in the new book Lang 102. In that same book are patterns for Exotic and Sol Degrade. I am also designing a summer top out of the Sol Degrade(a cotton color stranding ribbon ). What is shown in the picture is 2 balls of yarn! I am at the point where I am doing straight knitting, so I will do 1 more ball worth of yarn.
Also just in are some new Classic Elite yarns, but no books yet. I will let you know as soon as the books are in.
Sat. is the overnighter! Don’t miss the fun.
Cruise Meeting Sat.
Sat. We will start Jane’s project for the cruise. Photos are of the shawl which is worked in 2 pieces that are then put together with a 3-needle bind off for texture! The shawl takes 12 balls of mochi plus and size 9 needles. Sat. we will start with a couple mitred squares, so short straights will work. (Jane will teach this class later in the spring for those who are not going on the cruise with us).
We will also be discussing some of the many cruise excursion possibilities.
The meeting wil be at the shop from 10 am-12. It is not necessary to stay the whole 2 hours.
See you sat. Susan
