August meeting photos

Khomi admiring the "froggers" that Barbara decorated.
Barbara has definitely mastered split ring tatting!

A "frogger" is a needle used to undo mistakes..."rip it, rip it"! 

Sue Anna modeling a headband knit in a traditional arctic pattern made of qiviut yarn (from musk ox), a fiber 8 times warmer than wool.  

Qiviut yarn and a sensuously soft hand knit scarf from Alaska.

Sue Anna winding hand dyed thread onto a storage bobbin. Holding the skein open by putting it around a water bottle and the corner of the table is a clever way to keep the thread untangled!

Close-up of this effective winding method!
