Newsletter # 4 January - February
2006
We hope you had a wonderful start into 2006. Best wishes for a happy,
health year with lots of time for your favorite knitting projects!
The white snowy scene all around us, ( at least in the north) makes the world

but it is great exercise that we need after the season celebration.
