Update...

FYI, the Travel Guide covers have been sent back and I am awaiting the new copies. When I have them in my hot little hands, I'll let you know...Thanks for returning the covers so speedily...

RECALL......

Anyone who purchased a Travel Guide from my shop, please call me. The company is recalling ALL books. The binding is inferior, with use the books can fall apart. The publisher is replacing ALL issues, free of charge. I need your front cover to return for new books.

Continental Knitting Workshop...

Changes in day and time for Workshop...

I have been asked by a few knitters to teach a workshop in Continental Knitting. I am planning a class on Saturday, September 15th, from 12 to 2...the Workshop will be $20, supplies needed, a pair of straight #8 needles and scrap yarn, ww preferred. Please let me know if you are interested in attending.

It has been difficult planning this class. We aren't all available the same day/ times. This seemed to work for the majority interested. Please call by September 10 to register. 603-887-8550 Thanks and I hope to see you soon...Joanne

Looking for a new home...

We have two lovely Parakeets living in our dinning room. A male, Theo and a female, Paree'. As much as I love them and all their tweets, I need the space for other things...They live in a beautiful cage modeled after a house, complete with shutters, front door and chimney! Do you think you'd like them to live with you? If you are interested, please call me at 603-887-8550.

I am truly excited about the newest...

Duduza Dolls for Africa...

Here is the latest photo of our overflowing basket of the cutest Duduza Dolls ever created...There are 25 in all and it is only July! We have some with beads or earrings, some with corn-row hair, some with dreadlocks! Some in skirts, others in pants. My knitting friends are so creative.
I am so pleased and moved at all the dolls we have collected. I do believe we are going to make a group of parentless children very happy!!! I am so proud of all my knitters...Thanks to you all from the bottom of my heart!!
I will continue to collect dolls throughout August. They will be shipped to Vermont to the CHABHA Charity and then off to Rowanda and waiting arms to hug each and every one!
