Tracksy Web Stats A Knitter's Wonderland: TOO MUCH SNOW! Updated

A Knitter's Wonderland

(To the tune of Winter Wonderland) Needles click, how they glisten, cozy sound, as you listen, they’re stuck everywhere, sit down if you dare, welcome to my knitter’s wonderland. Yarn abounds to overflowing, countless books increase my knowing. I need every bit; I care not a whit if there’s no pathway through my wonderland! In an evening I can make a mitten, start a shawl, a sweater, or a hat. But the question to ask any kitten, is “Do you think she’ll really finish that?”

TOO MUCH SNOW! Updated

This is such a downer! I know we need the snow. I know this is good for us in the long run. But for Pete's sake, couldn't it show up on say, MONDAY!

This is going to be whiny!! This was our first big guild meeting at the Belle Isle Library. While there is still a chance it will come to pass (very thin), I've already heard from several people who are not going to be able to make. And I understand. I'd rather you were sitting in your warm houses, knitting warm yarn, not taking your life in your hands on the street! I may be doing the same.

I just so look forward to getting together with other knitters! But even as I type this, I can see something pouring out of the sky, kind of sleet-looking - PHOOEY!

So if you read this before you come, PLEASE call the library to be sure they are still open. PLEASE do not drive on bad roads. We can reschedule our special speaker (she isn't sure she can make either), we can pass out new lamb names later, we have more time to think about charity knitting.

I'll probably update this later in the day as things shake out!

And here's the update. As you know we ended up cancelling the guild meeting due to the weather. But I was most interested to hear from the library that several people had called in to check on it. I also received a couple of direct calls from interested parties wanting to know if we would be on or not. So the guild is definitely gaining interest!

I'm going to go ahead and announce the lamb names by Wednesday. I'm thinking I might put their cute little pics up on the guild group at some point. They are SO cute!

So that's it for now. Med update - spent most of the day in bed but it was a good day! Started the second strap of the MSB and should get it done tonight. Played with the beads I bought on Friday.

Aside to Wayne, whatever in the world would make you think this was a NEW hobby - LOL! Just wait until I show some of this stuff to Kathy!

Susan, I really wanted to come to the meeting today, too, but the weather is just not cooperating. I hope we can reschedule and I look forward to seeing everyone and attending then.

Stay warm and safe!

Whine away--I hate ice storms on Sunday, too!

I'm glad you cancelled it. That way I don't have that torn feeling because I wasn't going to chance the drive. Now we can all stay at home, nice and safe and knitting!

Oh, sure, as if Kathy doesn't have enough to do taking care of me. Now you want her to start beading. When do I get a little of her time? Glad you're up and about today (Monday) I know you can do it!
Wayne
