Knitty FL News
Here are some new and different things related to knitting going on in FL right now.
It's probably too late to get in on it, but Lily Chin (!) is going to do a workshop at the Stitcher's Haven in Plantation, FL in Feb 2006. Exciting! For more details, read the article in their latest newsletter here.
OMG, I have been drooling over the Loop-d-Loop book by Teva Durham, and thought how much I would love to see the items actually knitted up. Now I can! The Yarn Tree in Hollywood, FL is having a trunk show Dec 1-12! For more details, visit the Events page for the Yarn Tree here.
I've never been on a cruise, but one that combines knitting with all that food should be something else. Great Balls of Yarn! is involved with a cruise with the owner of Trendsetter Yarns as the guest of honor. To find out more, read all about it on their web site here.
St. Petersburg knitters, Dale needs your help! I read this in the St. Petersburg Times Floridian: "Making hats, lap robes, hot plates and pot holders for senior facilities and nursing homes keeps Dale's friend busy and feeling useful. But she's running out of raw materials. Dale hopes that folks with leftover yarns will donate them to this worthy cause; she will pay your shipping charges. Dale may be reached at (727) 372-8177; please leave a message."
And finally, an interest in knitting can indicate that you are part of the "MetroSpiritual" movement, whatever that is. Are you a MetroSpiritual? Prepare to agree or disagree, your choice!
