New additions

<----------As you can see, I added a few new things to the sidebar. The WIP links (Works in Progress) can be linked to photos of the projects people are working on. If you have a photobucket account, or know how to upload through imageshack.us, it's simple. If you're still figuring out the controls of Blogger, you can email me the link to the photo (or the photo itself, and I can upload it) along with your name and the name of the project. I will put up a link on that side bar, and when they are finished, we can take photos of the completed projects and post them in the other new addition: Finished Projects.

You might have noticed that my name appears A LOT on this page. Don't worry, I'm not that full of myself. As soon as people start posting their own pictures on here, the blog will look more like a group blog rather than solely mine- so join! Post! Enjoy!

See you at Guiliani's!

Classes

Hello All! It is a wonderful, class-free snow day! It is a day to go down in history. Did you know that this is the first declared snow-day for UIUC since 1977?! Whew! You'll never believe what I just saw out my window... there was a pick-up truck, pulling behind them a person sitting on a sled! Ha! Man, that would be so much fun...

I was thinking about starting up some knitting classes for those to wish to learn, or for those who already know how to knit, but want to learn more advanced techniques (intarsia and cabling, for example). I'd do it for free for the current KI members. Others would be $12-$15 per hour (I haven't decided which yet), plus the cost of supplies (yarn, needles, etc.)

At the moment, location is in my building in the downstairs lounge. If anyone is interested in either learning new techniques or helping out w/ teaching, email me. So far I have a few interested parties, and hopefully they will come through.

I will see some of you on Wednesday! Brave the snow- coffee and knitting takes away the chills!
