In the Loop
If you are in Lower Manhattan, I hope you will join me in the World Financial Center for In the Loop, a knit and crochet for charity group. Last year In The Loop supported Christmas at Sea by making helmets and hats for seafarers. This year they are keeping up with knitting trends and knitting socks.
I joined Ina Braun for the first event of the season. Ina provides instruction and assistance for beginners and is a lot of fun, to boot. Not only will Ina teach you how to make socks, but she will provide you with yarn and patterns as well. Ina also offers private lessons–you can find more details on her website (see the link above). I thought it was really fun to knit in such a big, polished corporate setting–warmed the whole place up a bit.
I hope to attend each event–and I hope to see you there!
