PICKS OF THE WEEK:
- Kelly - Eden by Sesia Stacy Charles Fine Yarns
- Angela - Another week of non-yarn picks for me. I am asking that folks consider donating money to Hurricane Relief for Texas, Florida, and more urgently, Puerto Rico. My charity pick is One American Appeal, founded by the 5 past Presidents of the United States. One hundred percent of your donation goes directly to hurricane relief. If that one does not suit you, charities can also be found at both Charity Navigator and Charity Watch

KALs:
- Rhinebeck KAL/CAL - AKA the Rhinebeck Sweater - but who are we kidding, this is the chance to show off your knits, so this can be more than sweaters! We are still working on the details, but here’s the general idea: The rule for this K/CAL is that you must use a pattern that incorporates cables. KAL/CAL will start August 1, 2017 and runs until October 22, 2017. WIPs are allowed. If you use yarn purchased from the store you will receive extra entries for your finished object(s). Extra entry points for posting pictures of yourself in your knit over the Rhinebeck weekend (October 21-22). #mlyrhinebeckalong
