Marsha had a fun day with lunch and a visit to All Wound up in Edmonds, Washington with "laterknitter" and "jchant". Look how happy we are to be together surrounded by gorgeous yarn! Kelly's Projects Kelly has finally finished the Playground Shawl ! This pattern caused her a lot of trouble, not because it is difficult, but because of her combination of slippery yarn and slippery needles. The only other active project is the Striped CoBaSi Socks . Oh wait! There's an octopus that needs to be stuffed and seamed up . Tour de Fleece Marsha has been spinning every day as time allows. Here is a link to to her Tour de Fleece project page for more photos. Kelly has also committed to spinning every day, along with a few other spinning related goals. Her Tour de Fleece 2017 page has a list of the goals and photos of the spinning projects. The first finished spinning of the tour is the Loop Bump that she plied with silk thread from the Black Sheep Gathering. Upcoming Events Kelly will be presenting to the Santa Cruz Knitting Guild for their July program. The title of the presentation is How Ply Structure Affects Knitting. Presentation will be July 20, 10:15-12:15 at the Vintage Faith Church in Santa Cruz. Want to see some wool judging? Mark your calendar for Saturday, August 12 at 9 am.
