those treasured trinkets.

HOOKING in the

This course requires a basic
knowledge of rug hooking.
Magdalena, a prolific,
primitive rug hooker in the late 1800’s found inspiration in her surroundings.

endearing. Afterwards we will design a rug in the Magdalena style using things
that you find inspiring.

Knit along for The “ Baa- Ble Hat
“
This will be a quick little knit along maybe just a
couple of weeks. Everywhere I look I keep seeing this hat on the internet!! So I
think we need to knit it!! Will be fun to see what different colour combos we
come up with.
You can see it here on Ravelry baa-ble-hat
We will be doing this hat starting next Wednesday
February 3rd. 1 pm to 3 pm. This takes four colours of yarn and you certainly
can use Cascade 220 , you might have some colours already leftover from one of
the other projects we have been doing. It takes very little black , so maybe we
can split skeins of it. They call for 4mm and 4.5mm dpns.
I think you should be able to use circulars for
most of it , if you have 24” or 16” ones. They have talked about this hat being
rather big and I know I knit loose so I will be going down a needle size or two.
I will most likely use 3.75mm and 4mm for mine. So bring whatever needles you
think might work for you.
As with all knit a longs, there is no charge but I
do ask you to buy your yarns from me for it or use ones leftover from other
projects we have done. Please let me know if you
will be joining us as always space is limited.
Happy Knitting
Lynn
