Washington Sock Machine Knit-In
Fancy Image Yarn, Shelton, WA
On February 23, 2002, Pat Fly from Tenino, WA, hosted a knit-in at Myra's Fancy Image Yarn shop. Only four people brought knitting machines, but many interested visitors were there to watch the event. The knit-in was a lot of fun.
Deb Browne from Silverdale came with her refurbished machine, an Auto Knitter that she recently purchased. Louisa Murphy, Port Angeles, bought a Legare 400 sock machine and learned to make a sock. Del Oaks from The Dalles, OR, arrived with her Green Auto Knitter. Pat said, " Every time I see that machine I get 'green' with envy!"
Del is shown here working on her Auto Knitter which she was so fortunate to purchase for $10.00.

Pat commented, "It was pretty hectic in the morning as many visitors were asking questions about the machines. Later on, we were able to chat and enjoy talking csm's between ourselves. Myra ordered pizza and we all went upstairs to eat and look around her shop."
Pat went on to say, "The shop has some really beautiful yarns! One of the regulars was displaying
