August Mini Workshop:
Machine knitting
Eleanor Goldfinch will demonstrate the pros and cons of knitting machines and then, if there is enough genuine interest, will hold a two-day machine knitting workshop to which you bring your own knitting machine to be shown how to set up and use it.

Mini workshops start at 10:30 am on Meeting Days. Meet in the small hall below the Guild rooms. There is a participation fee of $2 and sometimes a materials fee.
