 hello ACK!

we are back! (ok, sorry, way too cheesy!) we are back at Freeze Peach Cafe tomorrow, Thursday May 22, 2008 at about 8pm ish.

i just stopped in to Freeze Peach yesterday after work, and there's a whole bunch of new furniture--- for reals! new furniture! pretty snazzy. they have new tables in the front where people can work on their computers, and there is different seating in the back where people can lounge around and chat with their drinks. this should be a good change.

thanks to everyone who still came out to join us at Igloo in the past 2 weeks, you are awesome --- i hope everyone can join us at Freeze Peach again this week.

as always, bring your latest unfinished project, show off a finished project, and have a good time talking yarn, patterns, and World Wide Knit in Public Day!!!

ACK and SACK will be hosting World Wide Knit in Public Day at Astoria Park on June 14, 2008.

hello crafters!!!

it's time to meet for ACK again!

join us tomorrow, Thursday October 11, 2007 at about 8pm ish at Freeze Peach (www.freezepeach.org) for
another evening of crafting!

feel free to bring your current work in progress, or anything that you have finished recently-- we'd love
to check it out!

and be sure to post anything you'd love to show off and brag about on our blog :)

also-- i've updated the blog with our pumpkin picking extravaganza at the queens farm.

so, we were thinking-- let's carve pumpkins on October 21st, 2007 at my place-- time to be announced. if you
would like to attend, please respond so that i can notify you all of more details (such as my address)
and what to bring with you, etc.

if you did not pick pumpkins with us, you can still carve pumpkins with us! just pick your own pumpkin at
your favorite pumpkin patch, or a local supermarket  (i've seen a lot of nice pumpkins around....)

also, someone posted on our blog about an event that will be going on this weekend where you can pick
pumpkins:

"I am on the board of the Sunnyside Gardens Park located at 48-21 39th Avenue - just up from the Old
Navy and Toys R Us on Northern Blvd. We are a historical landmark 3 acre usually private member run
park. On Saturday 10/13 from noon until dark, we are turning the park into a PUMPKIN PATCH and hold an
Oktoberfest. We are open to the public this day and welcome all. This is a great family day and we will
have hundreds of pumpkins and plenty of fresh air. We're also having greenmarket vendors and arts and
crafts for the children. Pumpkin painting is free if you buy from the patch. I hope to meet plenty of my Astoria neighbors! "
