Knitting with Company

Mid February and we have been up in the 60′s and down in the 0′s … that, my friends is Chicagoland. It always makes me smile that no matter what time of year you put the news on … one of the headlines is always the snow, the heat, the ice, the rain, the drought or some other weather related crisis.

We do seem to get more ‘weather’ than almost anywhere else in the universe!  Meanwhile, our snowman waits patiently for warmer weather.

Like many of you I am trying hard not to watch the news … ye Gods and little fishes, it can get miserable out there with everything that is going on.  If we didn’t have Chicago politics to inject some much needed levity we would be in big trouble.

Thank goodness that we are all smart enough to be knitters and crocheters, people who always carry their own personal sphere with them, almost impervious to what else is going on, because we have our socks, our cardigan or our shawl to obsess about.  And we all know we can only truly obsess about one thing at a time, so I suppose it keeps us somewhat sane.

We offer plenty of opportunities to indulge your obsession during our classes, and at open knitting on Friday mornings and evenings as well as Sunday afternoon.
