I teach in South Minneapolis and am teaching a knitting class this week. I was wondering if you might be interested in coming in or emailing me and talking about some of the activities you are doing with your yarn stash. We got a ton of donated yarn from various places and I'm at a loss as to what to do with it all! Interested? Bethany I am very interested in your yarn diet.
