[Nfb-krafters-korner] loom knit mitten class upcoming

[minh ha]

Well, I don't have a lot of kids in my life to make children mittens
for so generally I'd just be making adult ones. I guess my thing was
if I could use a loom I already own for the project, I didn't want to
spend the money on purchasing another one. I'm in college so have to
be frugal. Haha. I'll look into getting one of the looms Cathy
mentioned though. I might just splurge and get the afghan S loom while
I'm at it.

"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty
recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity:
but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on
their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible." T. E. Lawrence
