Vermont & Knitting Guild News

Remember the laceweight cashmere blend I traded last week?  I traded with Elaine (*** added later -- I didn't realize Elaine had a blog, so now I know and now I linked. Thanks again Elaine! ***) who sent me goodies from Vermont:

Scone mix, biscotti mix, pancake goodies including maple syrup!  I can't wait to make a batch of scones this weekend.  Maddie already took the little mug (which is why it isn't pictured here) and has been using it -- she loves it!  Thanks so much Elaine!

And here's the world's worst picture of our guild meeting.  I'm terrible at taking photos (and to be fair, there was a wall in the way, so I couldn't back up any farther).  Despite the terrible photo, it was a fun time.  That's Marianne -- who owns my very local yarn shop, Perfect Touch Yarns -- at the head of the table.  She has been doing the work of all the officers for years, so I'm trying to help out a little more.  I met Cindi &  got to see her beautiful Vittadini sweater (that lace one with the ruffle -- she made it and it is gorgeous!)  And I met Vicki, who made a cute version of my Lily bag with srtipey goodness (I love stripes!)  If you live in the greater Joliet, Il area, let me know!  We would love to have you join our guild!
