We came back - and we brought yarn! It was so much fun to see the different things we were doing. Such talent in one group. Before diving in though, we started with a prayer of blessing for our community effort ( a little divine intervention always helps).
Alene took the prize for "first completed project". OK, so maybe she had a head start on the rest of us with her knitting machine, but still, SHE FINISHED A SHAWL! Beautiful too in a sagey green soft yarn (TLC Amore) in a finely knitted ribbed stitch.
Linda worked a technique new to the rest of us using a long crochet hook . It was a beautiful windowpane - like stitch done in an airy soft baby green (is there such a thing?) yarn. Linda may be teaching her trick to the rest of us.
Robbi worked a shawl in vibrant colors using Lion Brand Homespun yarn. Some lucky person will be warm, cozy and surrounded by prayer when wearing it. We also got to see the Yoga bag Robbi will be felting soon. Very nice!
Jeanne and Ann were quite brave and let Lisa show them how to knit. Ann is a crocheter but likes to know how to do it ALL! Soon both of these ladies will be needle clicking their way to a prayer shawl. Both went home with stitches to practice on.
We're off and running now. More to come!
