Introduction
Hi. I thought I'd better introduce myself to the group since I'm straggling in here late. I'm Penny from Kentucky. I ordered my yarn a couple of days ago and so I don't even have anything to swatch yet.
Even if I don't ever catch up, I still intend to have a good time and maybe I'll have the advantage of learning from those of you who are ahead of me in the process.
I'm a knitter and spinner in Northern Kentucky. I belong to the Weaver's Guild of Greater Cincinnati (which embraces all fiber arts, not just weaving) and Friendship Spinners, a regional Kentucky group.
I have two teenaged daughters, a wonderful husband, a loyal springer
spaniel and an uppity French angora buck named Andy. 

I'm looking forward to attending Knitters Connection in Columbus, Ohio this June, where I understand Gwen will be teaching.
I can't wait to get my yarn and get started. I ended up choosing a pale grey DK yarn because I thought it would show the stitches well and go with everything. I'm sort of wishing I had made a bolder choice now, but we'll have to see how it goes.
I'll be in touch.
Penny
