Fashion shows: Friday at lunch we will have the traditional, informal Sweetheart Seminar Fashion show. This is your time to show what you have been knitting in the last year.

This is your chance to encourage new knitters to take advantage of this great learning opportunity and have a chance to make some bucks too. Just tell Deb when you come in the door for registration, that you brought a knitter with you who has never attended the Sweetheart Seminar before and you will be given an entry for the drawing. If you are the new knitter and are joining us for the first time without the encouragement of a past attendee, just let us know when you come in for registration and you will be given an entry for yourself. Drawing to be held Saturday, February 16, 2008 during lunch. If you haven’t attended the Sweetheart seminar before: We are an informal, inclusive group. No need to have attained any special level of knitting. There is something for beginners as well as experienced knitters.
