Meeting notes: Nov. 14th

Tonight's meeting at Arby's was a delight. Donna popped in to say hello, and show off the adorable baby booties she made from merino wool. Sandra brought a gorgeous scarf she just finished, and also the two exchange students who stay with her, Lee and Jinny. Jean was starting a sock, and Inga was turning the heel in another sock. Jen made it to the meeting after missing many, and she brought a baby blanket in progress, and a 2008 knitting calendar.
 
The buzz: There is a new knitting shop in Nelson above BCAA, definitely worth checking out.
 
Jean makes items for Threads of Love, a charity organization that provides knitted clothing for preemies. Check it out:  http://www.threadsoflove.org/
