Hi to all from the beautiful Hudson Valley! I am married 28 yrs and have 3 grown children. I a now retired on disability from nursing and have decided to teach myself to knit. Soooo I have been knitting about 8 months now! I have made thus far a Feather and Fan afghan and have done a purse of which I felted. Along with those have been a couple of scarves. I am working on a sweater now from the "Pure and Simple" patterns now and may need some help soon! Nice to "meet" you all!

Hi, MaryLou12, I am a longtime member just returning after some time away, and I live in Ulster County. Maybe we are neighbors! There are many knitters in this area. I'd be happy to hear from you, and about your projects. Welcome, Chayah

| Welcome to the KR Forums. You are from a beautiful area. I spent many summers in Newburgh. I think you will really like it here. It's a 24/7 knitting group. Good luck on your sweater! |

Hi Mary Lou, and welcome to the KR Forums! I love the Hudson Valley......my Dutch ancestors moved up the Hudson after being chased from New Amsterdam by the British, who renamed it New York! I'm glad you did a Feather and Fan design--it is one of the prettiest stitch patterns, I think.
Keep us posted on your sweater!
Best wishes,
Anna
Life is beautiful. |
