Volume 2 Issue 2 February 2007

Welcome to a new Board….
February’s meeting brought in a new set of Board members for the 2007-08 year. Elections were held and the following new board members were elected:
> President: Carolyn Fairchild
> Vice President: Linda Pahdoco
> Treasurer: Keela Mostek
> Secretary: Brenda Asher
The board would like you all to know that we are excited about continuing with Susan’s vision – that the Oklahoma City Knit Guild grow and reach those who are interested in knitting and serving our community. We thank you for your support and look forward to serving you in the upcoming year.

Swap Meet
Are you ready for ‘swap meet’? We will have our next swap meet at our March meeting. It’s easy to participate in – simply bring any knitting item (needles, yarn, books, etc.) that you are no longer using or want and swap it for something that someone else brought and you can use. Come in March and enjoy!

Charity Knitting
The Guild would like to welcome Kathy Knox as the new chair person for our charity knitting. We are excited to have Kathy representing us. She will do a great job! If you have any ideas or suggestions, please share them with her.

List Moderators
Two new list moderators volunteered. Joyce Morris and Brenda Asher will now be moderating the guild listserv.

Magic Loop Presentation
Anita Roesler did a wonderful job of teaching us how to knit using the Magic Loop method. Great job, Anita!!

Guild Librarian
We are looking for a volunteer to head our Guild library. If you are interested, please let Carolyn know.
