Hi knitter's:

i just listened to Kelley's latest podcast. It was so nice hearing from the knitter's. Susan and Peggy have often helped me with a project. It was great hearing them for the first time!

Hi fellow knitters:

This weekend is the Sheep and Wool festival in Rinebeck NY. This is my first fiber festival and I'm looking forward to it.

Ever wonder what to do with those extra balls of yarn? Just make a few scarves and hats.
