Please join in the Ravelry group for this podcast.

The Michigan Machine Knitting Guild has a group on Ravelry.

A really big circular sock machine event is April 6-10 at Cape Girardeau, MO. Put on by the Erlbacher company.

The Spring Fiber Expo is coming up on April 9-10 in Highland, MI.

I’m going to Spring Fling 2016 in Peru, IN.

I forgot to mention that Cathy Reaume has organized a DAK workshop featuring Charlene Shafer for April 29 - 30. For more information, call Cathy directly at 734-243-3016.

28th Monroe Knitting Machine Seminar July 22 and 23 at Monroe County Community College. With the increased interest in machine knitting, this event may fill up early. Cathy’s email address is: monroeknitseminar@att.net.

At Jessica Knits in Scottsdale I got two hanks of Meadow yarn from the Fibre Company in Ladyslipper to make Axis.

At Isabelle’s Parlour (no website) in Wickenburg I got a hank of Paca Peds HT sock yarn in the color Mermaids Go Walking.

I plan to knit the Cotton Lace Ponchette with the Ice yarn. I couldn’t find this yarn in Ravelry. 

My vacation knitting was a pair of top down mittens knit with Ambiente yarn. Interesting yarn with great colors.

No love for the toe up socks with KnitCircus Gradient Stripes yarn. I like the yarn but not my gauge.

The Answer Lady and Ask Jack have great information for do it yourself machine maintenance.
