    Y2Knit Knitting Getaway Events
    We have only a couple of spaces left for the Y2Knit Knitting Getaway Experience, May 11- 15 at Kirkridge near NYC/Philadelphia. Experience the joy of color as you learn to master such techniques as intarsia (argyle), entrelac, fair isle, domino and modular, patchwork and miters, and short rows. More details about the workshops. Note that a weekend option is possible if you can't spend the whole 5 days with us.

    We've been working on the workshops and we're excited. Colorwork brings out such creativity and the experimentation with techniques and color is a pleasant challenge.

    As with all Y2Knit Knitting Getaways, we balance all the knitting with massage, yoga, good food, and the opportunity to enjoy nature. The connections we make others and the renewal and inspiration that result make every minute worth it. We hope you can join us!

    We've had many inquiries, and some registrations, for the Y2Knit Knitting Getaway Experience at Four Springs, in California, September 28-Oct 2. Don't hesitate-these spaces will go soon! We're looking forward to facilities upgrades in 2005, including more bathrooms! You can print a registration form and mail or fax it in now. We've just mailed brochures to the Y2Knit mailing list- -please note that the October 7 date on the front is a mistake--the Fall Experience will end on October 2.

    More info about Y2Knit-to-Fit at Heart of the Village Inn in Shelburne, VT, October 26-30 soon. This is a full 5-day event.

    Spring is here and summer is around the corner. Don't stop knitting! Workshops for April -June are scheduled, including a new one, Discovering Your Creative Self.

    Mark your calendars for Knitting Night, 7:00- 9:00pm, 2nd and 4th Fridays. Get together with other knitters to knit and chat. This informal gathering provides an opportunity to get to know others who love to knit too and to knit in a supportive environment.

    Pattern of the Month

    We know it's past Easter but consider Spring Basket for flowers or other reminders of spring. Check www.y2knit.net every month for the pattern of the month--it's usually up in the first week of the month. For April: Spring Brim Hat!
