Ravelry Tip of the Month is on hiatus. Ravelry Tips have been archived in a drop-down box under the Knitters’ Resources tab, on the green band.

Volunteers are needed! The San Diego North Coast Knitters Guild runs on volunteers – without membership participation our wonderful Guild cannot survive. Volunteers for open board positions for next year are now being actively sought.

Other Items of Interest:

Podcasts to Knit To  – Read Nancy Nevin’s new article regarding podcasts. Her original post What is Your Favorite Knitting Podcast? is still available.

Speaking of Podcasts – Eileen Adler just shared this with me – Fiber Hooligan. It’s been on hiatus for five years, and now Benjamin Levisay (head of XRX) is back with a number of interesting fiber-related interviews. The older ones may be available.

Visions Art Museum – Visions is a great quilt and textile museum in Liberty Station. While its focus is largely on art quilts, there have been other fiber art exhibits, including lace, knitting, and crochet. Find them on the web at VisionsArtMuseum.org.

Have information about events around the county which may be of interest to Guild members? Contact the Webmaster@SanDiegoKnitters.com.
