May Happenings






Bonnie has been working hard and finished the Tao/Parisiene shrug. Doesn't Natalie look nice in it? She was all ready for her prom and it was a perfect look for the picture.


Below is the finished Baby Tiger Stripe Jacket. This is the project for Kidlet Klub on April 30, then I will have the pattern for sale the week following. It can also be made in girly colors.
















I have done my swatches for the For Me?! KAL. I wanted something in neutral (I know.....), I wanted it to have a nice hand and a little sparkle. I think I will use it for the office since it is air conditioning season already. Grrrr..... I hate the summers.

Specials Happenings:

Cinco De Mayo- On Saturday May 5 we will have Fiesta Time. There will be appetizers, prizes and lessons on how to make Ojos De Dios. Check out Jay Mohler's fantastic Ojos at Ojos-de-Dios.com. Another great way to use scrap yarns.

Shibori- Last, but not least, we ( Natalie) have finished knitting the Shibori piece so will be getting it manipulated during this week, felted on the weekend and hopefully, if it successful, it will be on display next week. Check out these pictures of Shibori by Jeung-Hwa Park.




Pretty inspiring. Hopefully, we will achieve something similiar soon.

Enough for now. Still have a pattern I need to write.


See you soon!
