[Nfb-krafters-korner] needles

[Eileen Scrivani]

Hi Lynda:

You have time since the class will be  in September, either the 9th or the 
10th ... I forget the exact date.  Just keep in mind that even if you order 
on-line sometimes they might not even have them in stock so give your self 
enough time.

Hmm, maybe once you get up and going with your knitting you'll consider 
giving us a class in knitting of some type???  I too like learning new & 
useful techniques that I can apply in my knitting that comes from someone 
else's perspective.

Talk later.

Eileen
