The Needle Arts Mentoring Program (NAMP)
Stitch N’ Pitch is partnering with the Needle Arts Mentoring Program to raise funds and awareness for this important program, that mentors children in the needlearts. NAMP, a project of the not-for-profit, Helping Hands Foundation Inc., is supported by The National NeedleArts Association (TNNA). As of February 2008, over 160 programs can be found throughout 30 states with volunteers touching the lives of over 4000 children. Anyone with needlearts experience can start a program and volunteers are given free start-up supplies and teaching materials for their classes. To learn more about NAMP go to their website (I can't get the links to work right now) http://www.stitchnpitch.com/nampHome.asp

Stitch n Pitch and other things....

This is Nini or NamiNori (surfer girl). My cross eyed black faced booger...she's an sweet tub of cat...she outweighs Stitch, my Bubba boy...she's a tub of fat kat!

OH, and she's the one that will grab a ball of yarn and proceed to RE-Decorate ANY room with lovely shades of expensive (or inexpensive) yarn...she loves to drag it all over the house, and ...hmmmm......where is she now???

One of these days, ......one of these days...!!!

Stitch n Pitch is coming up....and of course, wouldn't you know it...when I decide to finally post about it, ...the WEBSITE IS DOWN!!


but, I did find some great blogs..and this one is the funniest!




I love her entry that she's divorced and 4 cats...isn't that my life too? (except, I have 2 dogs right now...anyone want a wonderful red Golden Retriever?).....my yellow Golden is my stupid dog, so you can't have him, but the female is available! lol.....


I think I might just have to go this year! Wouldn't it be fun to go and sit and knit, eat Dodger Dogs, and of course, watch Dodger Baseball...!!! Too bad they don't do it for the Angels....!

as soon as the stitch n pitch site is available, I can post more about that!!!






Lion Brand Podcasts!




Well, Lion now has podcasts...not just podcasts..VIDEO podcasts!
they have a few ideas posted, but it is interesting to see how to knit the ribbon yarn and to make a keyhole loop
I thought it was interesting! I hope it does well..I finally got an ipod! now I can exercise, and listen (or watch) ..and....have fun!
