We're all really looking forward to it!

📝 Topic:
Slides showing notebook pages, inspiration images and design process demonstrate how a small idea can grow with experimentation and sometimes even mistakes become favorite new stitches.

📝 Topic:
Unexpected knitting is about how an open mind and willingness to make mistakes has led to interesting swatches and eventually collections of new designs in my own work.

As part of her upcoming book tour, Anna will be @flyingsquirrelyarn.bsky.social for a book signing and presentation on Monday, November 17 at 7pm.

Do we know what resources have gone into our yarn and who is on the other end? Do we really understand the wool supply chain both in Canada and globally?

Topic: The feeling and smell of a brand new skein of yarn is magical, the way it feels in your hands and on your needles, the beautiful shawl or sweater it will become. But how often do we consider the people that have had a hand in creating our yarn before it is ours.

Next meeting: October 14 - mark your calendars! Our speaker will be Anna Hunter of Long Way Homestead and author of The True Cost of Wool.

Highlights from Sarah's presentation: There are many ways to play–collector, competitor, explorer, storyteller-and all can be expressed through crafting. Gnomes are never about "should". You make them because you want to. Making gnomes is quick, and each individual piece gives you a hit of dopamine.

Sarah’s presentation will also feature a short overview of the Grimblewoods book and some of her gnome patterns.

Members: See you there!

We only just learned about this, we can't do anything about it, and we don't receive any of those fees, but we want to be transparent about the pricing you can expect.

There is an additional facility fee which has been added to the ticket price, so when you look at the listing, the tickets show up as $10.50. And then there's an extra $1.00 fee per order (regardless of how many tickets).
