The next guild meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 4th at Maryland Hall.

We have a few exciting things going on this month! First and foremost, our meeting will feature a trunk show from local indie dyer End of the Row Yarns. Please feel free to visit her Etsy shop for a preview. She'll be accepting cash or credit cards in exchange for her beautiful hand-dyed sock yarn.

We're also opening signups in June and accepting deposits of $150 for the annual guild retreat. The retreat will be held the first weekend in October at the Claggett Center in Adamstown, MD and will once again feature the instruction and camaraderie of Tanis Gray. 

The annual YARN SWAP was bigger than ever with more participants too!  Everyone must have left with at least one item they had to have.

Next month, May, is our annual spring dinner.  This year we are going to Yellowfin.  Evites due soon.  See you there wearing something knitted, of course!

MEETING: March 3, 7 PM.      TOPIC: Ergonomics for Knitters
Come join us on the 3rd floor of Maryland Hall in Annapolis.  Bring your current projects to show and tell the group the pattern and yarn you used.

Meeting: February 5 at Maryland Hall.  The Craftsy SHORT ROWS programs continues.  Bring "Show & Tell" items and your charity knitting for Marcia.  See you there.

2019 Meetings begin JANUARY 8

NOTE WELL:  Our first meeting of the new year is the 2nd Tuesday, January 8.

We'll begin with the first of two lessons on SHORT ROWS.  Also come with your projects for show and tell.  Bring a friend to introduce to our Guild too!

Here are some memories of our holiday party at Karen's:

Of course we have to knit before presents!

DECEMBER is our annual Holiday Party.  Get the details in the email soon to come.

At the November meeting, Karen, Sherry and Lee gave us a review and workshop on several different embellishments.  A well-done program which was followed by a look at all the Tanis Gray "Kings and Thieves" cowls finished or almost finished by those who attended the annual Retreat.

NOVEMBER 6: Knitting Embellishments.  

At our October meeting, we shared our "go to" patterns.   On October 5-7, many of the Guild members and friends met at the Claggett Center in Buckeystown, MD for our (now) annual Guild Retreat.  Tanis Gray was our teacher.  We learned how to do a provisional cast-on, the perfect kitchener stitch, and to love reading charts.  Look for the finished "Kings & Thieves" cowl, our retreat project designed by Tanis, at upcoming meetings. 

 Here are some pictures of knitters enjoying themselves, doing what we love to do.... KNIT!

We celebrated Priscilla's birthday.
