Linda Kirsch in Italy!

Linda Kirsch is sashaying around Europe for awhile so she's not at the every Wed. Free spinning time 1-3pm, here at The Purl District. Here's a picture of where the group she is leading is staying. They check out fiber farms, dyeing, and handspinning. Linda says no yarn shops except a little yarn in dress shops. Linda met Mrs. Lamborghini and is going to invite her to come and knit with us in Silverton at the Big Red table. Evidently Mr.L sold the car biz and bought a golf club and spa where the Mrs. hangs and knits. Mr. L.has since passed on.

Have fun and see you soon ,Linda
