The Merry Month of May

It's" Lemonade on the Porch" time again at THE NEST. Beginning May 4, grab your knitting bag and join us every Wednesday from 1:00-4:00 pm. Our porch is a lovely spot to knit, relax and enjoy the spring and summer. If it should happen to rain, as it rarely does in West Virginia, you will have "shelter from the storm"(I'm a Dylan Fan).


May is a great month to stretch your knitting skills a bit. Learn to knit a cap while providing our neighbors undergoing chemo with a comfort cap. The class is provided FREE for a $15.00 donation to ACS which includes yarn and pattern. Check our calendar for times. Registration is required. "Fearless Knitting" has been a favorite class for beginners and intermediate knitters to learn to efficiently read a chart for textured, cabled and lace knitting. The class is FREE when materials, needles and book are purchased at THE NEST.


May 19, Tawnya will be teaching "Toe-up 2 @a Time Socks" using Cookie A's Monkey sock pattern using Claudia's Hand Paints fingering. Previous Toe-up experience is recommended for this class.


And finally, really challenge yourself with Entrelac. It's fun, beautiful and intriguing especially if you use Noro yarns. Try it, you'll like it.


Remember MOM (or yourself) with a gift certificate from THE NEST.
