November Knitter or Spinner of the Month!
It's election day! (no, not that election, we don't talk about such ugly things near the yarn! BUT I HOPE YOU ALL VOTED!)

Jennifer Crow
Jennifer knit up a plethora of darling baby and doll clothes out of UPP!
Doll Socks out of Twisty Sock in Ultramarine and Peacock Sock in Poppy
Otis Baby Hat out of Quaker Superwash DK
(she got all of these DK projects out of 2 skeins of our DK yarn!)
