Knit Michigan Pictures Have Arrived
Feb 14th, 2007 by jae
I think the film I sent in for developing from Knit Michigan traveled around the world – twice. One more reason why I should have remembered my digital camera. It was a long time in coming, but here are just a few.
As a marathoner, a chemo cap was part of the entrance fee. These are just a few of the caps turned in. From ribbed cotton to fuzzy fun fur over 180 caps were knitted, crocheted, and sewn.
Throughout the day, we knit. Imagine that. By the afternoon it was time to putting our knitting skills to work. Who could knit the most rows …
… while wearing gloves….
… blindfolded …
… and using only one hand. The last one was an interesting sight to watch. Holding a needle between knees, under a leg, or tucked under an arm and then jabbing at it with your other stick – not an easy feat! Possible, but definitely not easy.
There is so much that I didn’t get on film – the spinners, the daytime and evening classes, the marketplace. At least not on film well. The flash didn’t always work and some pics are a little dark.
All in all, it was a fun day. Good company and a good cause. I’m looking forward to next year!
One handed knitting–now that would be tough! Looks like it was a fun day for a worthy cause.
That looks like a lot of fun!
Hehe, at least you didn’t have to do *all three* together! Looks like you had a fabulous time with some great people for a great cause :)
That looks like so much fun! Neat contests.
