Knitting Day


    After the business part of our meeting
 today,  Alexa gave us a presentation from
 a school report she had done on Holland.
  She chose the subject because her great,
great grandparents immigrated from there
 to America in 1907.  We learned some
 interesting facts about the country.







  
     Even though it is late in the 4-H year (since county fair is in July) and we usually work on projects chosen much earlier in the year, we had a fun time today learning how to knit.  Of course most of us had done some knitting before, but it had been long enough that all of us had to be reminded (or shown for the first time) how to cast on.   Thanks, Sarah, we enjoyed it.





























The rest of the time was used mostly for getting
 started on art projects.  Other projects are
 beginning to be finished and ready for fair!
