Knitters' Fair

Just a reminder that the Knitters' Fair is next Saturday in Kitchener. And there is a new location. The Kitchener Memorial Auditorium. The Aud is easy to get to, just off Highway 8.

If you don't have GPS in your car then go to maps.google.ca - put in Kitchener Memorial Auditorium. I put in directions from the store and the map is pasted here. I'm not sure if it will work once I publish the post. We'll see :)

Happy Saturday! Here is a free pattern from Rowan.

Knit this stunning cable wrap, the member’s monthly exclusive free pattern for September. Designed by Marie Wallin and using the beautiful yarn Cocoon (merino wool and kid mohair). With an exquisite cable stitch pattern and cribbed detail edging, this knitting pattern is for the intermediate knitter.

Aileen is progressing. There is about an inch complete on the front band. I need to start knitting faster. Something tells me that I'm going to run out of yarn. Wannietta claims that if you knit fast enough then you won't run out.

Gisele from Wool N' Things in Orleans was in the store this morning. Kaffe Fassett and Brandon Mably are going to be in Ottawa at the end of the month. You can see more information on Gisele's website-there is a class as well as a lecture. It's too bad I don't live closer.
