January 21, 2012: Please notice our new email address: cardiknits@shaw.ca We are proud to show off some of the scarves that were so lovingly knit for the 2012 Special Olympics Canada Winter Games to be held in Alberta in February. Knitters from three local clubs, The Superb Knitters, the Burlington Machine Knitters Guild and the Cambridge Machine Knitting Club, participated in knitting over 80 scarves. We are so pleased with the scarves and we are sure that the athletes will be delighted to receive them. We were quite impressed by the creativity shown by our knitters who were simply asked to knit in blue and white with a touch of Canadian red. As usual you outdid yourselves and should be very proud. Please check the Workshops page for information on the Beginners' Ribber Workshop which we are repeating in March and the new Beginners' Single-bed Colour Changer Workshop also in March. This will be repeated if requested. You have been asking for Double Jacquard for ages so mark your calendars!! Cardiknits will be holding their 7th Academy on April 27 & 28, 2012. Our headliner will be Sarah Etchison from Washington State. Sarah is an expert in Double Jacquard and Lace on both the Singer/Studio and Brother machines so that is what she will be demonstrating for us. Carolyn Barnett from Kingston will also be teaching. Class details are now on our Classes pages. Registrations will begin on January 15th. While you're here, be sure to check out our Freebies as we have lots of interesting items for your knitting pleasure, including several Passap patterns. Cardiknits offers a Machine Cleaning Service to knitters whose knitting machines need that extra cleaning and attention. Call us if you would like to bring your machine in for some special TLC. Machine parts are usually available for all brands of machines, as well as sponge bars, the long-tailed cleaning brushes and Lori-Lin Lube.
