SOUTH RIVER KNITTING GUILD!<br /><div><br />We are so greatful to AAMC for providing such a great meeting space ... We're always making pink scarves for the Breast Center (see below) and <a href="https://docs.google.com/fileview?id=0B_rPmFajmNdPOGM1YzYxNTAtZmFhZi00MmY4LWFlYTktYTdhZTRkYmMzMDBk&amp;hl=en" target="_blank">Knitted Baby Caps</a> for the NICU &amp; nursery. (This <a href="https://docs.google.com/fileview?id=0B_rPmFajmNdPOGM1YzYxNTAtZmFhZi00MmY4LWFlYTktYTdhZTRkYmMzMDBk&amp;hl=en" target="_blank">hat pattern</a> is knitted flat ... they can easily be worked in the round, too.) ... We appreciate every bit of help!<br /><br /><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/TYoQlq5daOI/AAAAAAAAAFc/E-ac5K_89uc/s512/BabyHats.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587298497752010882" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-L_0Y5K-2-gU/TYoSYYSVEII/AAAAAAAAAFs/_AwEnWu5LJw/s400/BabyHats.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 174px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a></div><br /><br />And ... We've started a couple of new group projects.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2c6MY9jjI/AAAAAAAAACY/OUBEUk7oshw/s1600/2010_0302Image21.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471201645897289266" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2c6MY9jjI/AAAAAAAAACY/OUBEUk7oshw/s200/2010_0302Image21.JPG" style="cursor: hand; float: left; height: 150px; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; width: 200px;" /></a><br /><br />We learned to draft &amp; knit from silk caps &amp; hankies ... decadent!<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2dV2FLAlI/AAAAAAAAACg/OlDai9CxSkI/s1600/2010_0302Image28.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471202120945042002" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2dV2FLAlI/AAAAAAAAACg/OlDai9CxSkI/s200/2010_0302Image28.JPG" style="cursor: hand; float: right; height: 149px; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; width: 200px;" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Our Felt Clogs (Fiber Trends) were a lot of fun &amp; kept our feet warm through our snowy winter.<br /><br /><br /><br />The February Lady Jacket knit-a-long was a hit! Thanks to Sarah &amp; Kathy for guiding us through this one.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2eIeNUM0I/AAAAAAAAACo/XhJqI_p-9CE/s1600/2010_0302Image24.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471202990710076226" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2eIeNUM0I/AAAAAAAAACo/XhJqI_p-9CE/s320/2010_0302Image24.JPG" style="cursor: hand; float: left; height: 175px; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; width: 150px;" /></a> <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2eXsJsWSI/AAAAAAAAACw/fZ5pzn3b624/s1600/2010_0302Image26.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471203252151015714" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8ihHU8b7HcQ/S-2eXsJsWSI/AAAAAAAAACw/fZ5pzn3b624/s200/2010_0302Image26.JPG" style="cursor: hand; float: right; height: 175px; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; width: 180px;" /></a> We all knitted squares in many different patterns, techniques and colors for patchwork-type sampler afghans as a fund-raiser for the AAMC Foundation ...
