Errata-- Corrections to the Last Post

Y'all,

My apologies-- I put up a post yesterday that had some errors in it. I have taken that post down now, but just in case let me point out to you my biggest error: I said that this coming Sunday is Second Sunday. WRONG. That was last Sunday. So there is not a Second Sunday event coming up until next month. Also, some of the classes I listed didn't make or have passed. So, below you'll find accurate listings for a couple of upcoming crochet classes. And if you go to the store website, you can find a list of all upcoming classes.

Speaking of the Hill Country Weaver website (which is different from this blog)-- the site undergone some lovely changes. Please click the link above to check it out.

Thanks,

Spike
