Announcements/New Business
There was some discussion about the December Meeting and the it was decided that we would wait for Justine's return to
find out what will be decided for December.
There was no other business.
November Workshop
The November workshop was a "window pane" afghan led by Mary. Mary very patiently showed us how to create a window pane
effect using two colors which would produce a lovely, reversible afghan. Mary showed us her sample along with two finished
afghans using a solid color yarn and a variegated yarn to produce a colorful showpiece.
Everyone was provided an instruction sheet to produce a small swatch. This technique proved to be both simple and enjoyable
not to mention produced a lovely fabric.
Show -n- Tell:
From the many talented folks in the group, we saw the following:
Jean: A hat that was made for "Hats for Kids" which is a charity sponsored by Eastside Chat & Chain.
