Casting on Event; Now until June 2011

Saturday, January 29, 2011 12:11:54 PM America/Chicago

We had a great time at the opening event by the Manitoba Crafts Museum and Library! Follows are some pics of the opening kick off and a brief description of the exhibit. I really liked the bicycle made entirely of knitted wire.

Sponsored by Ram Wools Yarn Co-op

Manitoba Crafts Museum and Library

Exhibit:
Casting On: Knitting in Manitoba

This exhibit features hand-knitted pieces made primarily by Manitoba craftspeople. Traditional techniques are showcased in historical pieces, and contemporary pieces expose new stitches and designs, unique fibres, and hand-dyed yarns. Some Manitoba industries that have centred around knitting, including the Mary Maxim Company, the Spin-Well Woolen Mills in Sifton, and the White Buffalo Mills in Brandon, will also be featured.

Great yarn.
As mentioned by other knitters, this is a great yarn. One important fact is that it washes really well also. No pilling or fluffing, wash after wash.

great price if you don't mind plant fiber in your wool.
The Skater's waltz cardigan is my favorite sweater right now, I saw it and ordered two colors of yarn. After knitting the first one, I passed the other color on to a friend who likes felting - I spent about 20% of my knitting time removing sticks and prickly things from the yarn. But now that they are out, I enjoy my sweater! and the colors are absolutely gorgeous. And it was a well fitting, well designed pattern that I will knit again. PS my friend made me a beautiful bag from the other yarn.

Spring is hitting Winnipeg early this year. Tell us what keeps you knitting and crocheting through the warm season! We are thinking that spinning might be a great way to beat the heat and "unwind"...(<- pardon the bad pun).
