Double Crafternoon

What a weekend! It was full of many of my favorite things...friends, food and creativity!

Saturday I got to be a guest at a Crafternoon: Kala's Birthday Crafternoon. Many of the lovely and lively Borealis ladies gathered together to celebrate and knit. Kala is also known as Vegan Craftastic, which means there were tons of tasty vegan snacks to fuel our knitting. Happy Birthday, Kala!

Then, on Sunday, it was my turn to host Crafternoon. I like the moment of the hosting prep where the tables and chairs are all set up. Seeing all of those empty chairs ready and waiting for the guests is full of fun anticipation for me.

We had a great group, with Jill, Sally, Casey, Sarah, Missy, Jessica and Jamie. We were sadly without Meg and Cyrus this time as they are spending the year in Argentina. But, on the bright side, we had newcomers Sarah and Jessica join us this month.

We had a variety of crafts this month including sewing, jewelry making, paper cutting and, of course, lots of knitting!

Jamie is awaiting her next little one and in the midst of a major nesting binge.

Casey was working on a sweater with the loveliest of local yarns that perfectly matched the tablecloth.
Sally was stringing some beads that might show you your fortune if you look deeply into them.

With all of this crafting time, I finished my Goodale sweater. Photos of that to come later this week.
