Greetings!

After about 6 months and hundreds of phone calls (okay, maybe not hundreds) Jinka has finally got the website up and running again and is updating like crazy. She finished her A-line tank out of Urban Silk and is starting on another sleeveless pattern using Wach'i cotton.

Wednesday was a little raucous this week as usual. Aunt Karen brought cookies from the Fresh Market, so no one had a reason to complain. Many stories were told and laughter was heard. Oh, yea...people were also knitting. Alyce is coming along with her Feather and Fan Cardi for the Classic Elite KAL.

Thursday evening Linda blew in from North Carolina and we had to have a look at the new Kureyon sock yarns. Laura Apgar is the first one finished with her KAL project and the rest of us are trying to get there. Every one is at a different place in their projects, but all are progressing.

This week we got in some fun summer patterns from a new designer, C2 Knits. There is a tank, a cap-sleeve tee, and a skirt that Jinka swears she's going to make.

Remember sock monkeys? This week we got some patterns for making animals out of sock OR worsted weight yarn that look sort of like ballon creatures. They are very cute and you get the patterns for all the animals in one set.

That's all for now...Pearl
