new blogger

Hello all. This is the job I won playing *secretarial poker* this evening. If you have anything you want to share, let me know. As my first official act I am reminding Margie T. & Suzanne J. that they signed up to provide raffle items for the March meeting. Mary P. and Nancy B. will be providing snacks.

A question of vital importance: does anyone have a button maker? Know of one available for guild use? Inquiring secretaries want to know.

March is a busy birthday month! We know of Judith, Linda D., Suzanne, Kim W. & Camille. Anyone else? Tanya has an important question for you all.

More news next time. Linda F.

So, are you coming with us next year? You may even be able to talk your driver into stopping at a LYS on the way home, at least I know I did!
BSKGbag


DON’T MISS OUT—Preorder yours today! Our new Black Sheep Knitting Guild tote bag features the logo embroidered on the front of the bag–the type will be in a bright green. Zippered main compartment is a roomy 16" x 14" x 5" with a convenient, small pocket for your keys or Coffee Beanery discount card!

Front features a single zippered pocket plus a larger zipped organizer area that is divided into many small pockets—great for DPNs, circulars, measuring tape, scissors and other small knitting tools. A large pocket on the back will safely hold your pattern sheet.

Only $16 each. Delivery will be at or before the April guild meeting. Payment is due upon delivery.

Since the guild meeting was smaller due to weather, I am posting this info here. To be included in the order, please e-mail (pultz@comcast.net) me with your name and quantity that you would like. Or just comment here and I will check in. I am planning on turning in the order by next Wednesday, Feb. 20.

Thanks–Kate

Yup. . .tomorrow is the night, can you believe it?

Supplies for the meeting:
two colors of smooth yarn
needles in a size that match
money for raffle
sense of humor
spirit of adventure
friends

See you there!

Be my Valentine—or at least my birthday knitting buddy

Another birthday-knit-along!

Since no one except Pete will spend my actual birthday with me--being that it falls on Valentine's Day and many people seemed preoccupied with that--come knit with me on the Sunday after.

Sunday, February 17th 2 pm (seemed like a good time to start at Linda's) until whenever. Have some nibbles and of course cake (can't promise a heart-shaped one but I'll see what I can do!) Bring your Winter Fleece Fair buys to show and tell and let people touch and hold.

If you are all still here at dinnertime we'll order chinese carryout and keep knitting.

E-mail me at pultz@comcast.net for my address. Hope to see you--Kate
