Scarf or Cowl beginning on Saturday, April 14, at 10:30 am.  Tempo by FDC is Kate’s choice for this project that uses planned columns of dropped stitches to create open areas and fringe. 

Heidi will teach the Chic Knits Mondo Cable Cardi, Pulli, or Vest beginning  Wednesday, April 11 at 7 pm.  There are many yarn options for this project, but we’re liking the look of the Pulli in brand new Lilly by Tahki.   The vest in Classic Silk by Classic Elite will be comfortable all summer long. 

Start your Crazy Stitch crochet triangular shawl with BJ in a one-day class on Saturday, April 14, at 1:00 pm.  This Victorian era stitch works up beautifully in a lightweight Noro.

Welcome spring with this sweet little shoulder wrap from Classic Elite’s Spring 2012 leaflet, Abbey.  It uses two balls of Allegoro, a sport weight linen and cotton blend.  It also works up beautifully in Seedling. 

Joggle is a motif crochet project, meaning that it is made in small sections that are joined to neighbors to make up the larger fabric.   Each circle joins to its neighbor on the 3^rd round.   Close your wrap by popping one circle through the center of another
