Last Spring during Open Knitting this bald eagle flew by the classroom window and landed in an old pine tree in the yard. While many people are eager to see an eagle so close, Yorkie owners have mixed feeling at seeing them. We have at least three nesting pair in our area and they fly over every morning. As soon as the leaves are fall, they will present a problem and the Yorkies girls wouldn’t go out without us. It just goes to show that you never know what you will find at Playing With Yarn during Open Knitting.
Don’t forget to look at our Outreach page, we keep adding new photos as we get them of people’s itty bitty baby dolls clothes.
Remember our Open Knitting on Monday Evenings and Thursday Mornings! Everyone is welcome no matter if you knit, crochet, weave, embroider or what! People have learned to knit and crochet during these free Open Times and everyone has certainly increase their skills with yarn!
And we have added a Open Spinning Time. Fridays from 2 until 5 you can come with your wheel or spindle and spin with us. If you haven’t a wheel, you can borrow one of ours for the day. Carolyn will also be happy to give spinning lessons, for a fee, during this time.

And we are on Face Book now – playing With Yarn in Knife River, MN – become a fan.
