'Loving Embrace' Knitted Scarf' Retreat ~ February 12-13, 2011

Join Heidi of Healing Knits Canada for a weekend exploring the creation of your own personal 'Loving Embrace' scarf.  This scarf will be created based on short adventures into your imagination. 

During the weekend, you will begin to get a sense of how you can create beautiful, handmade items that have personal, and symbolic meaning for you.  This is a spiritual adventure into knitting, and we will be wearing our 'Loving Embrace' Scarf during a special honouring ceremony over the weekend.

Basic, intermediate or advanced knitting skills would welcomed.  If you do not know how to knit, you are invited to gain a basic understanding of casting on, knitting, purling, and casting off before coming to the retreat.  Other stitches may be taught over the weekend.

Spaces are very limited, so please register early.

The cost for this retreat is $150 per person.  This includes accomodations, meals, and the knitting program.
A $50 non-refundable deposit is required to hold your space on this event that is sure to fill up quick!  You can register with the paypal button at the bottom of this post, or contact me at heidibearca@yahoo.ca to find out how to secure your spot!

Come to the Bookery and tell me what you like about Debb!

This is a special, free event for people who are interested in finding out more about healing knits, and to honour the brains behind the Bookery Cafe in Listowel, Ontario.  Over the years, we have watched, laughed, tried delicious coffee's and shopped through moves and changes at the Bookery.  How exciting, and I am so thankful that this store is in Listowel! 

Join Heidi Burrowes of Healing Knits Canada to share in the creation of a knitted item of gratitude to be gifted to Debb Greer, proprietor of the Bookery in honour of the colour she brings to the Listowel landscape. 

On Friday, January 14th, 2011, from 10 am - 6 pm, Heidi will be knitting, singing, drumming, and hearing your stories of gratitude to be woven into this gift of thanks.  Drop in and leave whenever you wish throughout the day.  There will also be an opportunity to speak with Heidi about the upcoming "Loving Embrace" Scarf course happening throughout February at the Bookery.
