GREAT AMERICAN ARAN KNITTED AFGHAN
Begins January 2010 and culminates 2011
You've seen the pictures of this heirloom afghan; 24 squares of cables, braids, bobbles and more. It's been on our "bucket list" since the pattern first came out in 2003 and now you can join Mary Carol, Anita, and Glenda in an amazing free year-long class. We will cover two squares per month with an additional month for finishing.

The only requirement is that the yarn and pattern be purchased at LambShoppe. Choose from a wide variety of worsted weight yarns, but order the yarn this fall to insure enough of the same dyelot and to be ready to start knitting the beginning of the year. Specific dates are to be determined, but we are tentatively leaning toward two Saturdays a month. If there is sufficient interest we can set up a weekday or evening session as well. And plan for a blow-out party in 2011 to celebrate the completion of this amazing project!

One customer who has already signed up has suggested a marvelous addition to this class. We will be asking each student to make one additional square of his or her choice sometime during the year. We will then assemble all of these additional squares to create a special afghan that will be donated to an auction with all proceeds going to charity. (Thanks Liz!) Please sign up now, so we can determine how many people are interested and how many sessions we will need!
