Goodbyes

Hello:

It was a bittersweet evening at Crossroads tonight as we had our last meet up with JulieMustKnit.  She will be moving out of the area, and we are so sad to be losing her.  Of course we can keep up in our Ravelry group, and we hope to see her at our Retreats (as they become a regular feature of the Eastside Stitchers), and possibly Madrona, or other fiber festivals.  But, we will sooooo miss knitting with her on Wednesday nights and Friday mornings.

So, who made it to Crossroads to say goodbye?
JitteryKnitter was back from her fossil expedition in Oregon and knitting a shawl.
Puzan was knitting a bear sweater for the Seattle Knitters Guild charity.
GwenS was casting on a sweater for the beautiful Addie.
Wireknitter was making a lace shawl.  This photo does not do it justice.
JulieMustKnit has been knitting hats all year.  She is trying to knit some bizarre number of hats this year.  She has chosen a really beautiful pattern for this hat, Habitat by Jared Flood, and is knitting it in Brooklyn Tweed's Shelter yarn.
ReadnitDream is knitting a cowl with yarn she got on this year's North Puget Sound LYS Crawl.

Barbara is knitting a lace scarf. (O, dear, what IS your Ravelry name?)

We had a visiting Ravenclaw join us.  IAmACuttlefish, who is visiting the area for the summer, came to knit at the new faux wood tables at Crossroads (If you haven't been to knit in a while, don't be freaked out at the new tables.)  She brought a beautiful lace project that I mangled with a bad photo.
Ok, I need to go be sad to say goodbye to Julie.

Peace,
