Our very own Sock Semi-Summit!

figurative: sum•mit - the highest attainable level of achievement.

No pressure there.

Perhaps some of you follow the Yarn Harlot's blog? Well, she is hilarious, very well known internationally (which is great for a Toronto gal) and she is planning a Sock Summit in Portland Oregon this weekend. 3000 people applied for something like 500 spots. Wildly popular.

Remember the definition of summit (at the top of the page?) Uh, huh. No pressure.

So we are planning our very own SOCK SEMI-SUMMIT! You know. Just below the summit. Because to call ourselves the Summit is putting a lot of pressure on ourselves and who needs that? So while we will aspire for excellence, we'll settle for damn-fine.

There's limited space, but the SOCK SEMI-SUMMIT! begins Friday September 4, at 10:30. We will meet for 4 Fridays: dates are September 4, 11, 25 (i know, we skipped a week) and October 2, always at 10:30. The cost is $75.00 (includes taxes), instruction, pattern, wool and needles. AND coffee! And unlimited exposure to ellen if you need it to clear up foggy issues.

And if you are diligent and practice lots, you'll have at least one damn-fine sock done.

You need to reserve your spot, and we don't consider you registered until you've paid.
