When you walk into our new knitting studio it really does make you want to knit, even if you have never knitted before. I had a friend in the other day looking at rug hooking courses when we showed her the knitting room. Let’s just say she made an appointment next week with Megan for a knitting lesson. I even have the bug; yes Vicky it’s true I want to knit a pair of mittens. I know you will be in shock.
Deanne started having everyone take ten minutes a day to knit and relax. It doesn’t happen every day, depending on how busy we are but everyone looks forward to it. Megan and Brenda even have a little competition going on at the moment. They are both making the same sweater with the same yarn, just a different color, so it will be fun to watch their progress.

Now just to decide what color I want to use ?
Lorna, make one of each…love them both!
It’s a great idea…
Deanne, my friend, Debbie, is on her way! She’s promised to give me an ETA/Amherst, so I’ll be in touch…and she’s a knitter!!!

Well Lorna I am DELIGHTED you are possibly getting the knitting bug!!!! I have been knitting for more than 40 years and I love it as much today as I did when I was in elementary school. We moved to amherst when I was in grade 4 and I remember knitting before we moved, that’s a lot of scarves, mittens, sweaters, Lopi’s, baby clothes, hats, afghans, dishcloths, crocheted fine tablecloths, and most recently purses and backpacks. Give it a try Lorna, you are surrounded by that beautiful wool everyday, create something amazing!! 🙂

It was Megan’s idea actually, but we all love it. It is called the ten minute knitting club.
