Nice to meet you (well sort of). I've not met anyone with my name before either. I tried to go to the website linked to your name, but got a server not found error. Maybe we'll meet again here. And thanks to Ellen for alerting me to this comment. Hi there, ten-year old Shelda! Nice to meet you (well sort of). I’ve not met anyone with my name before either.

Though shoulder shawl works well too. Btw, since I got an email asking, this shawl is from an old issue of Knitter's Magazine. It's the "More Than Circular" shawl by JoAnn Besold. I think the issue is out-of-print, but the shawl pattern has been reprinted in The Best of Knitter's Shawls and Scarves, which is still available (XRX Press). Hi, Monica!

And you and Shelda! Both looking beautiful!

I wish we had a class like that nearby. It sounds like you learned a lot about how knitting works. What a wonderful class! I wish we had a class like that nearby.

Not only did you get to go to a Fiber Retreat, but it was in MO. I really don't have any knowledge of the rest of the state, but I do love St. Joe. Hmm, I wonder if we should consider moving there?
