Winter is here!! 
Okay, so as I am typing this, it is actually pouring outside and the temperature is supposed to hit almost 60 degrees today, but stillthis photo was taken of me and Emmett snowshoeing this year at Tifft Nature Preserve, and according to the calendar, winter is officially underway. That means the winter classes are starting! Have you added some of them to your schedule??? This is the season of small accessory classes (as you can see by my pitiful display of mismatched hat, scarf and mitts, we could ALL use some new knitted goods)happy little projects that help you learn a new skill, like lace knitting, and are easy to complete! In addition to the classes, LOTS of special events are coming up, like a knit and ski day at Holimont, a concert with the band YARN at the Sportsmens Tavern and a Visit the Village Trip to Melanies Caf. Be sure to join in the fun!! It may be raining today, but the snow is soon coming back, so get clicking needle-holders and a very Happy New Year to you all!
Erin and the EWE Crew ! 
 


 
Sweater of the Season:   
Starting the first Thursday in October from 10am-noon, the EWE will be hosting its first-ever seasonal sweater knit-along. This is NOT a class. It is a weekly opportunity to get together with other knitting friends and work on the same sweater, before the shop opens! There will be coffee and other goodies, and our knitting progress will be reported in a weekly e-mail. You may either sign up to knit with us in person (the cost is $35 for the season) or on-line. We will be making the Tea Leaves Cardigan by Madeline Tosh. We will be using Plymouths Worsted-weight washable merino for the body of the sweater and choosing a skein of Jenna Meyers hand-dyed 716 Knit Yarn for an accent in the sweaters yoke. This is a whole new knitting adventure for me, and I cant wait to start it! I hope many of you will join me for the ride!!!
 


 
Sweet Charity 
At last count, we now have donated over 500 blankets to Roswells Knit It Forward Blanket Program. That is a LOT of Warm-and-Fuzzy Good wishes. Keep up the great work. We are still taking donations of yarn, needles, squares, and (of course) your time if you are willing to sew squares together. The blankets are really appreciated by the Roswell patients who receive them. Thank you!!!

What's Erin knitting?
 
I am soooo proud of how this came out. I received three balls of green, alpaca tweed in a mystery yarn exchange. I used my winnings to make this winning kangaroo vest for Emmett--just in time for Easter. Isn't he handsome?
