Lamb's Pride Worsted is on SALE for June.
Aran weight, wool and mohair, grown in the USA and spun by
the
Brown Sheep Company in Nebraska, this yarn has stood the test of time.
Stock up for this Fall's CABLED ARAN SWEATER CLASS (see info below)
while there are still lots of colors to choose from!


Summer's hot weather is just about here. That's when I drag out the dye pots and make beautiful new hand dyed wool rovings for spinners and needle felters. Watch this space!

Did you know....June 13 is KNIT IN PUBLIC DAY ?
We like to gather on the front lawn of the Claverack Library
and knit for a couple of hours.
10 am-noon
Come join us!

MAKE A LOG CABIN QUILTED POTHOLDER

12:30-2:30
Sundays
 June 21 and 28.


I have mentioned quilting/piecing projects to those coming to
SitnKnitnSpin Sundays, so I've scheduled a class for this month.
 If you love your sewing machine, by all means bring it,
but these can be made totally with hand sewing.
Interested? let me know. We'll need 3 to run the class.
Class would be $50 and includes everything you'll need:
 cotton thread, needles (my favorites!), cotton fabric, wool batting and rings for hanging.

     
Our Sit 'n Knit 'n Spin meetups continue on!
The community we share gets wider and friendlier
 every month, so come be part of it.

Knitting and spinning help always cheerfully shared.


SIT 'N KNIT 'N SPIN  meetups for this month:
June 14 and 28
 
Come knit the FREE pattern MAJA along with us!
The Lamb's Pride Worsted yarn
it uses is on sale now at 25% off....

Here's my sleeve...
