March/April 2004

It's not too soon to be making family camp reservations. The same people who bring you "Knitter's" magazine offer many wonderful events including Camp Stitches at the White Eagle Conference Center, Hamilton, NY. This year the camp will be held from July 15 - 19 with NINE nationally renowned instructors including Beth Brown Reinsel, Maggie Jackson (MaggieKnits), Galina Khmeleva (Orenburg Lace shawl), Maureen Mason-Jamieson, Sally Melville, Rick Mondragon, Judy Pascale, Merike Saarniit and Candace Eisner Strick. Spend the entire long weekend with one of these talented folks combined with lots of social times sprinkled throughout the event. Early bird prices are available through 6/3/04 but the sooner you sign up, the more likely you are to get your first choice of instructor.

You can find out more information at www.knittinguniverse.com or stop by the shop. I've already signed up and would love to get a bunch together. If you are going to be attending camp, let me know if you are interested in carpooling, Woolpack roommates, or other mischief.
