April05 Ezine

Volume 2, Issue 4 April 23, 2005

Ahhhh...Spring Has Sprung... Hello, Friends… Well, can you believe it is already April 23rd??? There are so many things that make April one of my favorite months and then there is the ONE thing that makes it a dreaded month as well, at least in the US is TAX DAY! With that looming in the air, I am very behind on my ezine. But let’s focus on the positive, right? April is full of new LIFE,

baseball, cleaning out the flower beds and getting the yard ready for summer. It is all about Spring! And, speaking of new life my good friend, Stacy, had her first child early this month. A beautiful baby girl. I knew her due date was April 15th so I stopped in to see her on the 13th, but she wasn’t in her office. What a difference a day makes...I found out that little Miss Kylie, a 7lb. 4 oz. baby girl, had arrived early that morn-

ing. What a blessing a baby is! I made her a baby blanket a few weeks ago and I’ve been waiting to share the photo of it until I could announce Miss Kylie’s arrival. This blanket is found in our Babies Vol. 1 Collection. I also have a nice surprise for you...one of our members, Henry, who lives in New York, went to a KnitOut Event and sent in an article and photos. You will really enjoy reading it! Also, see if you can find the hidden message in the word search this month. ;-) Blessings,

Vintage Recipes from 1914... This month’s recipes are from The Pure Food Cook Book — Good Housekeeping Recipes, originally published in 1914. You’re going to love these! Keep in mind I am copying these exactly as they are in the recipe book, so I’ve put in parenthesis my suggestions. Nut Bread Sift together four cupfuls of flour and four teaspoonfuls of baking powder. To one-half of this, add one cupful of chopped walnut meats and half a cupful of raisins. Now beat together three-fourths of a cupful of sugar, one and onehalf cupfuls of milk, and one egg. Add the sifted flour, then the flour containing the nuts and raisins. Put it in two well-greased (loaf) pans, let it stand about twenty minutes, and bake for nearly an hour in a moderate (350 degree) oven. An English Egg Select a small, firm tomato. (As many as you will need) Cut out the stem end and scoop out the seeds and soft center. Sprinkle with salt and

turn upside down to drain (About 5 min.). Then sprinkle with pepper and finely chopped parsley. Break a raw egg into the tomato and add salt and pepper. Arrange the prepared tomatoes (not too close together) in a buttered pan and place in a hot oven for a few minutes.

Strawberry Charlotte Mash one box of prime berries through a colander, add two-thirds of a cupful of powdered sugar, and stir until it is dissolved. Soak a half-box of granulated gelatin in a half-cupful of cold water for thirty minutes, then melt it over hot water. Add the strawberry juice, and stir continually until the mixture begins to thicken, then fold in a pint of cream whipped. Pour into a mold, and stand on ice to harden (refrigerate). Serve plain.

Cherry Salad Ripe red cherries, one head of lettuce, quarter of a pound of filberts, and mayonnaise dressing. Blanch the filberts by soaking in boiling water and rubbing off the skins. Remove the stones from the cherries and replace them with the filberts. Arrange lettuce leaves in nests, place cherries in center, and serve with mayonnaise dressing.

What Others Are Saying... Dear Tabitha: I downloaded the first one and my mom was so so so excited. She is the one that loves crochet...in fact, for my mom, crochet is her passion, she is so excited and happy...Thank you Tabitha for being such a nice person, for sharing your patterns with millions of women around the world. Thanks for being such a wonderful person and for sharing you amazing crochet patterns with us! God bless you and THANKS!!!!!! Elisa G.

Hello Tabitha, I just had to email you to say thank you for the Vintage Afghans CD. I have only looked at the first booklet and I am just awed by these gorgeous afghans! Even if I never make one I will enjoy just looking at them. Thank you so much, Elaine

Tabitha, I love my CD. It brought back many memories of my childhood and watching my mother and aunt use these

same kind of patterns. I have collected some on my own at yard sales, etc. It's a wonderful way to save our heritage. Thank you. Kay

Hi, Tabitha. I absolutely loved the patterns and it was exactly what I was looking for. I found several patterns that my own grandmother had made and it was worth every penny. I can't wait to start working out of the books I received and I am definitely going back to the site to buy more! Thanks, Stephen S.

Dear Tabitha, I enjoy your monthly e-zine so much! Not only do I love the patterns, I love the recipes and the little word searches and "extras" you put into it. It is so wonderful that you put so much time and love into each issue. God Bless you and thank you for such a wonderful thing that you are doing in making these ezines. They always brighten my day. Christa

Thanks, Tabitha, for the free patterns. I just downloaded them successfully and am tickled with them. I am looking forward to ordering the other patterns soon- in the rug collection I saw a crocheted rug with a sailing ship design- for many years my mother had a rug in that very pattern in one of the bedrooms at home. Thanks so much - this is a wonderful work you are doing! Kalli

Hi Tabitha, Thank you so very much. My Mother used to have one of these so it is so nice to have a copy. Thanks again. Barbara

Tabitha—Thanks so much fir the "betweens" patterns! I enjoy them so much.The patterns book are great I just can't crochet fast enough to do Iall I want to do LOL. Angela

Thanks guys! Blessings, Tabitha

Featured Member Project... What wonderful friends I’ve made since starting this business. And I can’t think of a better one than the sweet lady who made this month’s featured project. This doily is called “Deep Lagoon” and it is found in the Doilies Vol. 1 collection. It was made by Shrabani who lives in New York. She is without a doubt one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met (at least via computer!) She actually made two of these and sent them to me for my living room. Shrabani, I want to take this opportunity to say “Thanks!” to you publicly, not just for being a great member, but a good friend. You are a treasure! May you be blessed many times over, like you have blessed me! ;-) V O L U M E 2 , I S SU E 4

A Great Time, For A Great Cause... I love hearing from our members! Henry lives in New York and offered to share a story about his experience participating in a Knit-Out event in New York. Enjoy!

KNITOUT! March 5th, 2005 My name is Henry Lopez III, a 27 year old male in New York City who recently learned how to knit and discovered a love for knitting accessories and a dream of sweaters for me and friends. In early November last year, on one of my knitting-store shopping days in the Upper East Side of New York City, I had bought a few wool rolls and a large pair of needles to make scarves for friends as Christmas gifts. At the register, I spotted a postcard with the words "2nd Annual KNITOUT!" on the front. I flipped the card and read that on Saturday, February 26th, an organization named CancerCare (which helped to provide financial assistance and counseling) was promoting a knitting gathering day to make hats for people who have lost their hair as a result of cancer treatment and stay warm for the winter days. My immediate response was "I want to be part of KNITOUT!" I had learned how to knit a few months before and basically stuck to knitting

made my nervous trip to West 23rd Street. I took the elevator and when I entered the CancerCare office, I was treated with smiles. My nervous feeling was left at the door. I was given a set of yarn balls and a pattern and made my way into the gathering. The first thing I noticed...I was the only man among over a hundred women sitting, talking and more importantly, knitting beanie caps! I found a table and introduced myself and felt comfortable. I sat next to a window with a beautiful clear view of a blue sky and I could actually see the Statue of Liberty; I was ready. :)

I left the KNITOUT event with a deep emotional feeling of joy. I am not a major part of organizations, but the feeling of using my talents with other people to make caps for children or adults with cancer made me anxious to make more beanies and sign up for the 3rd annual KNIT-OUT and create extreme caps like a true experienced knitter. Henry Lopez III New York City, NY

The pattern was tough for me, at first, with the rib knit. Two knits followed by two purls. I messed around at first, but my table pal showed me an easier way to mentally control the rib stitch. The women were super friendly and I had some bagels, coffee and muffins as a great breakfast. I met people who lived near by and we spoke about our previous knitting accessories and I felt at home. A little after the great ham and cheese, tuna, and turkey sandwiches and wraps I was half way from finishing my first beanie. The patterns had two options: child or adult. I chose child and made a small knitted cap to donate for a child. I walked around and talked to other
