    Hi Wendy,

    When you all get together do you know in advance what will be the project of the day? Is it for one meeting or a long term project?

    Yup-we have chosen the scarf by Stephen West called Spectra. I have it listed and some pics at the bottom of my classes page in the site…check it out! I have the yarn here and the sample if you want to see it in person.

    Hello Wendy,

    Do you have Katia Ondas yarn in red shades and pink and fuchia?

    Thank you

    Hi Juliana! I have the Triana Lux in the red shades. As for your other question: The knit along is when we all get together and cast on the same project at the same time. It’s free and it’s not a class. Just a group/social knit. You coming??? : )
