talented people quietly displaying their masterpieces

Every year on the last weekend in January I go on retreat. It's a serious retreat. Time for meditation.  Reflection.  Solitude.  Oh... and did I mention knitting? 

This is a compilation of photos from the last several years.  Exceptionally talented people quietly displaying their masterpieces.  It is sponsored by The Studio, a great little knitting shop by the plaza in Kansas City.   This is a weekend of pure relaxation and fun.  Sitting around with a bunch of other yarn/knitting addicts and getting ideas about something you might want to try next.  Oh and did I mention good food, door prizes, fireplaces to sit by, and the opportunity to see and perhaps purchase new and unique yarns?    

Yep.  That's my idea of a serious retreat.

Love, love, love. Knitting is something you can do if you know how. Hope that helps everyone with tying knots with sticks:) Seriously, whoever thought up knitting? And, did they use sticks, and wool....very curious about this Carol...

Can't wait to hear/see what comes out of this wonderful weekend. You are always such a source of inspiration and new ideas. Have a great time and behave! Those knitters can be a wild bunch :)

I love art retreats......never been to a knitting one but it sounds like a lot of fun. And if there is shopping involved, that is a good thing.

Wow! I gave the retreat serious thought but was too busy this year...maybe next year!

Love this! I just got back from an Art Day at a friend's house where we all brought a portable project that we're working on. Some knitters, some painters, some embroiderers, etc. So fun!
