BUILDING BLOCKS CLUB!

Good morning, my knitting club lovers!  Our Monday Night Knitting Club with Brenda and our Christmas Club are in full swing and both are a HUGE success!  For that reason, we have decided to add yet another club to our repertoire!  We present to you Building Blocks!



To quote the Michelle Hunter, the author of this series, directly: "Building Blocks was created to move the new knitter beyond the basics by introducing the major knitting techniques in a systematic approach.  Each block builds upon the skills of the previous block, allowing the knitter to gain confidence and knowledge while working toward a beautiful sampler afghan".

I coud not have said it better myself, (which is why I cheated and just quoted the designer!).

There are twelve beatiful blocks in this great book, and every one of those blocks puts a new skill under your belt.  Never again will you be scared off by a bobble! 

And even though we have an exquisite and bountiful selection of yarn to choose from, Jen jumped on the crazy train yet again and has now stocked the store with 21 (yup, I said it, TWENTY ONE) new colors in simpliworsted by HiKoo. 



I would show you more pictures, but I'm going to be mean and force you to come and see the rest of the goodness for yourselves with your own twinkling eyes! 

This heavy worsted is composed of 50% Merino Superwash, 28% Acryllic and 17% Nylon.  Your stitches will be well defined, your colors will be bold and vibrant, and because it's superwash, it will be a breeze to take care of! 

So, my friends, here is how this works!

**We will be meeting every other Sunday (the specific dates wll be posted at the end of this entry).
**The fee for the club is 5 dollars per class.  Please pay the instructor at the beginning of class.
**Yarn MUST be purchased at Woolworks for this class. ABSOLUTELY NO EXCEPTIONS.
**Sign up for the Building Block Club begins immediately.  The limit for this club is 8. Do not wait. Our classes fill up very, very quickly.
**And most importantly, bring a good attitude and prepare for a lot of fun! 

I can't wait to get this started!

Here are the specifics!  Happy Knitting and Crocheting to you all!
