When It All Began

In 2005, a couple of my friends, Linda Pollock and Kim Treichler wanted me to start a knitting weekend similar to the quilting weekend at Camp Kon-o-Kwee in Fombell.  So I placed a letter in several knit stores in the Pittsburgh area.  It invited  those interested ladies to join us in February for a weekend of knitting, great food in a beautiful setting with lots of surprises and fun.  We had 40 women attend.  Most were from Pittsburgh, but several were moms or sisters traveling from elsewhere to have time away with their daughter or sister.  It was a great success, and we are now in our seventh year.
