February 13th Meeting:  “The Valentine Project” Heart motive, inset design or trims, if it’s knitted and has a heart bring it in! We will also be having the “Make your own sponge bar” demo from M. Slattery. A separate email entitled “Sponge Bar Directions” has already come your way. See you at 10 AM in Building K.  We will be in Room 131, located near the west side of the building.

 

Just a reminder that the first “Knittin to It” guild meeting for 2010 takes place next Sunday, February 7th at the Burr Ridge Community Center from 12 noon until 4pm. Frieda will demonstrate how to translate hand knit lace and cable patterns onto the machine using the garter carriage. Hope to see you there! You are also welcome to bring a treat! Pam

For Sale: a Brother 881 with ribber, I have never used it, I got it at a garage sale, I paid $100 for it.  I only set it up once for a County Fair Exhibit (from hand knitting to Machine knitting – got a blue ribbon) I’ve had it for 2 years and space is getting scarce with all my hobbies, would anyone like to buy it?  Best Offer? See J. Rich.
