Or at least, last chance for bliss in September.  We’re closing out registration for the first North East Fall Men’s Knitting Retreat at Easton Mountain next week!

Last Call

Thirty guys are currently registered for the first Men’s Knitting Retreat at Easton in the Fall (Thursday, September 20th through Sunday, September 23rd…yes, next week!).  The event will also coincide with the Adirondack Wool and Arts Festival, which is a lovely festival in a beautiful location.

I have been to Easton Mountain in the Fall before and it’s quite beautiful, but honestly, the community of guys that these events attract is what makes the retreats so magical.  22 of the guys scheduled to be there have been to a Men’s Knitting Retreat at Easton in the past and 8 guys will get to experience it newly.  For both groups, it’s always a fantastic time.

If you know of any fiber-crazed guys who want to register, share this link with them for registration, or have them contact me directly.  Registration is only $390 and that includes 9 meals (from Thursday dinner to Sunday lunch), a bed in the guest house for three nights, a welcoming wine and hors d’oeuvres receptions, project bags with give-aways and a fun-filled agenda.

Hope you can join us.

Current Knitting

More progress on the two scarves on the needles.

For the Knitted Cross Stitch Scarf, I’ve completed two of five repeats.

This is still my favorite design.  For the Seven Up Scarf, I’ve almost completed five of seven repeats.

I’ve also used one of the cable extenders in the Lykke Interchangeable needle set and having used almost all of the set now, I can wholeheartedly recommend it!
