I received my first Covid-19 vaccination yesterday. Altogether, it took about a half hour - including waiting 15 minutes after receiving the vaccination to ensure there were no adverse effects. The only side effects I'm experiencing are a bit of a sore arm. It feels somewhere between a sore muscle after tons of exercise or a bruised muscle (you know what I mean if you are clumsy like I can be!). Certainly not debilitating....Thanks to the staff at the Summerside clinic for being so wonderful! When it's your turn, don't hesitate. The sooner we get our vaccines, the sooner borders can open up and we can see everybody's smiling faces again!!! #covid-19 #vaccination #getyourshot #staysafe #knitpickerspei

I imagine many folks are thinking of Queen Elizabeth today - celebrating her birthday so shortly after the loss of Prince Philip. Happy birthday, Your Majesty!!! #queenelizabeth #happybirthday #95years #knitpickerspei

Hope you can join us for Ewe Love to Knit Night this evening from 7 - 9 pm! Bring your fibre project (knitting, crochet, etc), your mask, a beverage if you wish, and have some fun! #knitnight #EweLovetoKnitNight #knitting #welovepei #knitpickerspei

The weather forecast is calling for flurries and freezing drizzle this afternoon and more freezing drizzle tonight. I think it would be wise to cancel our "Ewe Love to Knit" night this evening and keep our fingers crossed that the weather is more cooperative next week. #ewelovetoknitnight #knitnight #cancellation #knitpickerspei

Got your haggis ready? It's Robbie Burns night! #robbieburns #auldlangsyne #haggis #tartan #knitpickerspei

A little weekend baking. They are made with oatmeal and peanut butter - that makes them healthy, right?!? #baking #treats #homemadecookies #nomnomnom #knitpickerspei

Bernie dropped in for a visit and offered to help you choose colours of Briggs & Little wool to make up your own pair of Bernie mittens. He even shared a link to a free pattern for his mittens: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bernies-mittens. Maybe he'll pop back in for Ewe Love to Knit night on Tuesday! #knitting #EweLovetoKnit #knitnight #berniemittens #briggsandlittlewool #empowerpei #welovepei #supportlocalpei #knitpickerspei

Have you been wanting to attend one of our knitting workshops but are nervous about a group of strangers in these days of Covid-19? We've got that solved for you! Did you know - you can book a private workshop for you and your "bubble" of family and/or friends. Check out our FB Events or our website calendar for the dates and times that our workshops are scheduled. Send me a message with details on which date and workshop you would like to book. A minimum of four people ...are required for a private event. You'll want to book early to be sure that nobody else has selected your preferred date!
