Such fun!

Until I get a chance to go through all of the pictures from the knitting retreat, I will leave you with this one, that Sarah took of Patti...

...and this one that I took of Sarah!

A wonderful time was had by all! Stay tuned!

Gina would like you to take this fiber quiz....

FIBER QUIZ!!!



She promises a good time!

CHER!

Cher is one of the regulars at InsanKnitty! I asked her to share what she was knitting with the rest of the world, and here's what she sent...

"Attached is a collage of the 3 projects I'm working on right now. No, I'm not working on 2 ruffled scarves (only one). It just makes for a nicer collage.

My favorite needles are Addi Turbos with the Clover velvet straight wooden needles a close 2nd. You will rarely find me working on dpn's unless they're used to finish a project.

Misti Alpaca (especially the handpainted that just arrived @ Yarn Haven) is one of my favs when it comes to yarn, but it also depends upon what project(s) I'm working on.

I have been knitting for approximately 4 years. Before that I had a succesful mail order cross-stitch business. Let's just say with maturity comes the need for eye-easy projects. Cross stitch is not eye-easy! Need I say more?"


Thanks, Cher! Nicely done! C'mon the rest of you without blogs...SHOW us whatchu got!!!

Show 'Em What Ya Got!

This is an official shout out to any of you InsanKnitty needle chicks who don't have a blog of your own .... email a picture of what you're working on to the InsanKnitty email address. Include any details you want (special notes, yarn type, where you got the pattern, etc). We'll post it HERE to show the world!!!!

Also, countdown to the knitting retreat!!!

Woooooohooooooooooooooo!!!

Merry Christmas!!!

Only five days left! Are ya ready???

Thank you Dale Anne and Bobbie for the wonderful Christmas presents you bestowed upon each of us on Tuesday night! They are VERY appreciated!!! You two are the best!

Also, thank you to all those who contributed to our impromptu buffet of Christmas treats! WOW! What a wonderful mini feast we enjoyed! Cookies, candies, crackers, dips, brownies, PEPPERMINT COFFEE, flavored creamers, HOMEMADE angel food cake (incredible Jenifer)....we are so spoiled. Mmmm!

Isn't it cool that we have so many new fiber friends as a result of Yarn Haven?!?!?! Just think about the new people you've met since the shop opened. I, for one, am thrilled to have met so many of you. What a unique, beautiful, and sincerely insane group of women!

Okay, friends...let us enjoy Christmas and the New Year and then let us...RETREAT!!!

Also, let us not forget that there are several new classes starting in January, so don't wait too long if you intend to sign up. This includes SARAH'S SOCK CLUB...space is getting limited.

With Sympathy....

Bobbie, Ruthie, Joyce, and dear, sweet Anna...

We love you. Words cannot possibly express the sadness we are all feeling for each of you during this extremely difficult time. Know that we are your friends and we love you so much.

Love,

Your Girlfriends
