I am in Fredericksburg!! Actually, I have a Fred addy, but I live in Spotsy.

You Stafford gals should come down to the Knitter's Cottage on William St in downtown on Tuesday nights from 7-9--Knit Night

Bunch of crazy knitters get together, to eat and knit

Oh my yes I have been to the knitters cottage. I was very new to knitting and they were very helpful to me. I just might go knowing that some of the people are from this board. I really don't drive at night in the winter. Never was good at it to much snow up in Mass. Which I love that it doesn't snow that much down here. I hope to go down there after Christmas now. With all my new Christmas money.

I just discovered a new LYS in Tabb, VA. That's in York County. It's name, appropriately enough, is The Yarn Shop. I think it has bveen there a little over a year.?

And if any of y'all go to Williamsburg, be sure to visit the Knitting Sisters. Wonderful place with tons of gorgeous yarn.

vaknitter, RunningMommy, chie96, and MamaMer, I've added you all to my friends list on Ravelry. I had already added the other Virginia knitters who are there. MamaMer, I don't know how, but when I typed in MamaMer in the people search on Ravelry, it sent me to your profile. How do it know???

The Knitting Sister is great! I absolutely love every one there and they have such gorgeous yarn.
You know what I live literally 5 min away from the Yarn Shop and have never been. Is it any good? The owner scared me in her last shop so I have avoided it.
