LYS Farmhouse Knitting Retreat: April 1-3, 2011

Our first knitting retreat!  Join LYS in beautiful, rural Lancaster County for a weekend of knitting, relaxing, and community!  

Imagine an Amish farmhouse that has been renovated to offer guests all the comforts of an inn and the hospitality of a home. White Oak B&B, just a few country miles from LYS, is a 'wonderful good' setting for a friendly weekend of knitting and community. The Knitting Retreat is scheduled for April 1st through 3rd, and runs from Friday evening to mid-day Sunday.  Cost includes lodging, meals (except Saturday dinner on-your-own), and a Farmhouse Knitting Workshop on Saturday.  The workshop is an Introduction to Lace Knitting with fingering weight yarns.  You'll receive a kit with locally hand dyed yarn, needles,  & pattern.  Let's make something beautiful together!
