Don't forget:

Bonne Marie Burns, Sunday,Dec 10th, 2 -4 pm: A trunk show of some of her most famous sweaters plus she will share tips & tricks to great fitting sweaters.

Bonne Marie is one of the best sweater designers. She consistently produces great designs that are fashionable and timeless. Sweaters you knit last much longer than store bought sweaters because hand-knitting yarn is sooooo much better than the yarn used in store bought sweaters . Having a sweater for ten years is nothing, fifteen years is common, and twenty years is not unheard of. So, making sweaters that make you look hot and happening today as well as years from now is important. Bonne Marie's designs do just that.

On Sunday, December 10th, 2 - 4 pm she will be talking about design and sharing with us tips & techniques to make a sweater and finish it well. Please come join us. Your gift knitting should be winding down. Take some time for yourself.

Kathy
