I hope this email finds you and yours healthy and safe. It has been a minute since we last visited and the world is still so unstable for so many reasons.
Our Fall 2020 retreats are still on as of now--we will keep you posted as time goes on. What I do know is that the Instructors for Way Up Maine (Denise Bayron + Kristin Drysdale), Quechee VT (Mary Annarella) and Cape Ann Fall Edition (Louis Boria) have all agreed to teach virtually if we are unable to meet in person. More on that as time goes on and decisions are made. Something to look forward to regardless!
To that end, I thought to myself "Why not start virtual classes now?" Let's do the hokey pokey and turn ourselves around! I am thrilled to announce the beginning of our Virtual Knitting World Tour!
Kicking off June 26th we begin our "Greetings From" Series featuring:
Greetings From Maine with Alicia Plummer
Greetings From Edmonton with Melinda Measor
Alicia will be teaching a class on her beautiful sweater,
Campside Drop, full of instruction, tips and techniques. Class attendees will recieve a copy of the pattern. Her second class is a lecture explaining and demonstrating live how wool gets from "Sheep to Sweater". 
Melinda will be teaching a Sock FUNdamentals class increase your confidence to embrace sock knitting. Her second class features "Breaking the Mold" when it comes to sock patterns. Learn to make the necessary modifications for toe up or cuff down, regardless of how the pattern is written. All details are on our website and registration for class is OPEN! Stay tuned as more classes will be added. We are hoping to add a little Yoga on to the ends of our classes to help recover from the 2 hours of Zoom. Give our neck and shoulders a little love!
As we move forward with whatever the world brings, I am committed personally and professionally to stand with and for our BIPOC friends. I pledge here and now to donate a portion of our proceeds for the remainder of the year to various racial justice organizations beginning with Black Visions Collective.
I hope to see you soon whether we are ZOOMing or in person!
Until then.....
Peace,
Christine
