I'm looking forward to seeing everyone there!  If you've never been to
Alliance, keep in mind that there's the main bakery storefront, and
right next door is the seating.  They have two seperate street
entrances, so you buy the goodies at one, and sit down in the room
next door.

I'll be there at around 6:30.

Also, Happy Birthday this week to Linda N and Valerie B.  Stephanie
had a beautiful wedding at Millenium Park during the KIP, so congrats
to her  and her new hubby!

See you all there!

Anyone up to a roadtrip to The Fold this saturday? I will pitch in for
gas if we use someone elses car. I've started spinning again and need
some roving and don't feel comfortable yet ordering it online. I won't
be snb, going to the Guild meeting this tuesday so just e-mail back.

If any of you are up for seeing the fireworks downtown on the 3rd,
we'll be staking out a blanket in Grant Park for some KIP'ing.

As for our regular Tuesday meeting, the Alliance Bakery will be closed
for the day, so I am hosting at my house.  Everyone is welcome; my
house is around the corner from the Bakery, so it's really convenient.

My cell is 224-489-6685
My address:
Cabasaan
1339 N. Damen 3n
Chicago, Il 60622

We'll be meeting at our regular time/place on Tues, Alliance Bakery at
7 pm.

See everyone thereJ!

As I just finished my shawl today, I would like to remind everyone
about our photo gallery of finished projects.  Everyone is welcome to
post some pics of their favorite finished projects!

Tomorrow, 7pm at the Alliance Bakery. No CTA breakdowns!

The yarn harlot is coming from 6-8 on Monday; the talk is at Ridge
Park, 9625 South Longwood Drive. Signing follows at My Sister's Knits,
9907 S. Walden Parkway

http://www.mysistersknits.com/assembled/home.html.

We can meet downtown at 4:45 to take the 5:05 train; the station is at
Lasalle and will get us there at 5:30.  The next train is 5:15, but it
doesn't get there until 5:42, and I would like to be there a little
earlier to get good seats.

Email me if
1) you want me to save you a seat
2) you can't make it, and need to get a book signed.

Thanks!

If anyone is interested in going, the information is posted here:

I am interested, so if you would like to order tickets with me (and
sit together-I don't smell!), I will be collecting the money at the
next two snb meetings.  The price is $25 for ticket, chips, hotdog,
and some kind of totebag.

See you next tuesday!

I'm new to the group, so hello to everyone. I recently relocated into
the city from the suburbs. My job is somewhat hectic so I'm not sure
if I'll be a regular attendee of the SnB meetings, but I'll do my best.

:)

Just as a reminder, this Tuesday is the last day to sign up for the
stitch n' pitch group outing to all sit together.  The price is $25
for ticket, chips, hotdog, and some kind of totebag; more information
is posted here:
http://www.stitchnpitch.com/pdf/StitchNPitchWhiteSox.pdf

I'm collecting money for the tics this tuesday, so let me know if you
want to come, and bring a check or cash.

See you tuesday!
Rachael

For those of you who asked at this week's SnB...here's a direct link to my Flickr Set of photos from my trip to Hyderabad, India last week. http://flickr.com/photos/22748341@N00/sets/72157594208591322/

FYI, there's an entry called Links in the menu to left and many of us have our blogs, etc. linked there. Some of these photos were also posted to my blog (with comments, of course), and there is also a link to my Flickr account on my blog, Garden Purls

I know stitches is around the corner, but I just had to let you all
know. The place I bought the cashemere sample card from on ebay is
have a really REALLY good sale. They have stuff from lace weight to
aran weight, mostly cashmere, but some blends, some silk and
occasionaly camel. A cone of laceweight I just bought for 29.00 was
lowered to 20.00 and it has 2250 yards for the 150 gram cone, and the
shipping costs are really good. You could easily knit several strands
of it together to get a thicker yarn. Just an FYI. They are on ebay
under ColourmartUK,  http://stores.ebay.com/ColourMartUK
