Eileen Adler and her very famous Knitting Circle at the Pacific Beach Library, San Diego

Hi everyone,

We are meeting this Saturday, March 15 (10 to 12) and Tuesday, March 18 (1 to 3) to review three different lacy bind off methods for our shawls.  Check out the videos - and yes, there are other techniques so bring along your favorite to share.  *:) happy

My best,
Eileen
