It's a fun social atmosphere, with the first meeting discussing the fit of the sweater. You will need a knit swatch before the first meeting (more information below) The first meeting is MANDATORY, as we will discuss fit and gauge and hand out printed patterns and email digital patterns.

Summer Projects

I have been searching Ravelry for some pattern inspiration... I needed a little project to take with me during summer travels (both kids are driving now...so I have ZERO intention of driving at all this summer) An Italian Summer Scarf is a fun knit that I think would be SOOOOOO cool with Cumulus Rainbow. I'm thinking I'll knit half way through the ball then start decreasing so I don't have any leftovers. It will be a great way to show off the long color changes of this yarn. And the pattern is FREE!!! I'm also craving a bag like this... So I think I need to crochet the Summer Days Daisy Bag with Cotton Supreme (which is being restocked TODAY!!!) This would be fun to make the squares on the go and then piece them together while watching a movie or two! Of course if my kids are driving, I might have VERY different gauge for each square!!
