I live in Dubuque, Iowa, just a little more than an hour from Madison, and my Stitch 'n' Bitch friends have been wanting to take one of your classes for a long time. Now we know where to go to plan it. :)<br />I'd also like to say thank you for your work. I make baby hats for all the munchkins I love the most, and they're always out of the Itty Bitty Baby Hats book. I made my nephew the Snowman Hat when my brother and his family were living in El Paso, Texas, and my sister-in-law said they could hardly get through the grocery store. People loved it. Now I just need to get to work on your sock pattern, a 2014 knitting goal. :)Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12123909931965596371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35689847.post-68525519653717074322014-06-03T12:22:35.609-05:002014-06-03T12:22:35.609-05:00Such an awesome letter from Beverly we need more t...Such an awesome letter from Beverly we need more teachers like her in our childrens lives.
