Come join us September 18-21 at Carole's Bed and Breakfast in Sunny San Diego for four days of relaxation and instruction in learning and designing knitted lace. Participants will learn the basic techniques for knitting lace, a history of lace, and have an introduction to designing your own lace projects. Celebrate autumn and take some time to relax and pamper yourself before the holidays.

Our teacher will be the lovely and talented Miriam Felton. She has designed many of our favorite shawl patterns, including the Icarus shawl, the Seraphim shawl, the Hidcote Garden Shawl, and the Juno Regina wrap. Her designs have been published in Interweave Knits and Knitty.com. You can see more of her work on her blog at http://www.mimknits.com/wordpress.

In addition to our knitting class, we will be taking a guided walking tour of Balboa Park and enjoying afternoon English Tea at a local tea shop. Not to mention hours of knitting, chatting and general merriment. Click here to see Retreat Agenda.
