LADY MUSKOKA KNITTING CRUISE RECAP

AHOY KNITTING MATES!


"Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fun-filled knitting trip
That started from this Bracebridge port...
Aboard this tiny ship.

The knitters were mighty sailors,
The skipper brave and sure.
A crew of happy passengers set sail that day
For a three hour tour, …. a three hour tour."


Hope you can join us next year!

SUMMER ROAD TRIP MKAL UPDATE

It has been a fabulous summer ... hasn't it? All that rain we received in July has been good for watering the flowers, preventing forest fires, overnight car washes and of course the main event.... knitting!


We are z-o-o-ming through our Summer Road Trip MKAL with a few pit stops along the way to soak up the sun and enjoy the changing landscape as we celebrate the beauty of CANADA from coast to coast. With just a week or so left until we take off our driving gloves and set the needles down, here are some of the colourful postcards sent from 'the road'


Wish you were here...
