Sorry Stephen

We received our first donations of hats, mitts, shawls, cowls and baby blankets. A gentleman brought in a big garbage bag full of items that his wife had knit before she passed away. We will be delivering these to Mission Services soon. The gentleman was telling Lynn his story and she got so caught up that she forgot to ask his name. She was so upset that she didn’t get it. Thank you to him for thinking about bringing them to us and thank you to his wife for all her hours of work.

Lynn has a new project. She is using Cascade 220 Heathers to make The Douglas Cardi. This is her project to wear at Camp next year. She swatched early this week and cast on last night. The dark grey will be her bands.

We received a happy email from Madelinetosh this afternoon - Tosh Merino Light for The Frank Shawl is on it’s way. We should see the yarn early next week. The kits are online and you can preorder.

I have been knitting away on my Inclinations Shawl. The colours are starting to change which is when the fun starts. It’s very hard to put down. This is what Andrea said about the shawl

This shawl is all about texture, squish and the movement of color. Watching the colors move and change was mesmerizing, and I finished the shawl long before I was ready to, because I just could not set it down!

I need to apologize to Stephen West. I’ll get back to you next week.
