Our October meeting was a busy evening. We have two nominees for Vice President: Harriet A. and Tanya T. Voting will take place at the November meeting.
Drew gave our first trunk show of the year...hope the Honey Cowl and Slouch hat made it back to his table...they looked lovely on Kelley and Charli!
Raffle items were donated by Donna and Merritt — thank you! Winners: Claudia — 4 skeins of Knit Picks 'Bare' and a copy of Yarns to Dye For; Judith — Schaefer Anne yarn and beads; Chris H. — Misti Alpaca lace weight and Best of Knitters Shawls and Scarves; Kathy P. — Black Sheep Irish Collection magnet and Tracey — Swallow Studios Woolly Sheep pin and Zen and the Art of Knitting.
Brown Bags: and green bags, pink and polka dot bags...it was the annual brown bag swap, where bringing a knitting-related $10-$15 item in a brown bag entitles you to join in the fun. Bags were selected from the table and opened...or sheep could decide to 'steal' one that someone else already opened! There were over 30 participants and a close eye was kept on numerous items as stealing was only allowed twice per item.

Blankets: It was the evening to turn in the charity project. The Davis blankets (pattern by Tanya) kits were prepared and distributed last spring by Judith. With a fun meet up at her house over the summer to keep us on task, there was a table overflowing with finished blankets of all colors. After washing, the blankets, along with a stack of books Judith has collected, will be donated to Project Night Night. Thank you Judith, for all your hard work and keeping us all inspired!
