![]() 2020 COVID19 WORLD HAS CHANGED THE WAY WE ALL DO EVERTHING! NO CRAFT SHOWS, NO AFTER-SCHOOL ENRICHMENT CLASSES BUT NOW WE ARE HAVING FUN SELLING OUR PRODUCT ON-LINE AND GOING VIRTUAL TEACHING "FUN WITH YARN" CLASSES. WITH THE RISE IN ZOOM CLASSES AND MEETINGS WE HAVE LEARNED TO SOCIALIZE VIRTUALLY. AND KNOW WE CAN ENJOY FRIENDS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND LEARN MANY NEW CRAFTS. MY FAMILY HAD A WONDERFUL TIME CELEBRATING OUR MOM'S 83RD BIRTHDAY WITH A ZOOM PAINT PARTY. SO MANY SURPRISES AND FUN LEARNING HOW TO PAINT A FAVORITE DISNEY PICTURE. NOW I WILL BE TAKING THIS FUN WAY TO LEARN TO A YARN CRAFT LEVEL FOR ALL AGES. JOIN OUR NEW "FUN WITH YARN" FACEBOOK PAGE AND VISIT MY WEBSITE TO SIGN UP FOR CLASSES. IM BUSY CREATING NEW MARKET BAGS AND WORKING ON MY LARGE DEMAND FOR EAR BANDS FOR MASKS. NEXT WEEK ITS BACK TO THE WORLD OF SPORTS FOR ME AGAIN. NOT AS MUCH FREE TIME, BUT I HAVE LEARNED WHAT IS IMPORTANT AND FUN FOR ME TO BE INVOLVED IN. WORKING AND TEACHING CHILDREN AND SPECIAL NEEDS STUDENTS IS WHAT I LOVE THE MOST. KEEP CREATING AND LEARNING STAY SAFE, DENISE

2017 was a great first year for me and my mom. We participated in many craft shows. We met so many wonderful people, both crafters and customers. Planning my first Trunk Show for Feb 11. And I am now selling my knits in Two shops. ( Time's Tin Cup in Boonton, NJ and Bluebird Alpaca Farm.
Teaching has become my passion. I have expanded my curriculum for Fun with Yarn and continue to teach elementary Beginners Knitting. Knit Fun All, Denise Great Year of fun and creative younglings. Bittersweet because I started the year with Dear Friend Gwen Bunker. After a fall at knit class, We lost Gwen.
Not only a friend but family. All the kids loved Gwen's fun spirit and unbelievable art of needlework and knitting. Gwen shared her spirit with many young knitters and crafters. My mom and other dear friend Joan, Gwen's best friends, helped me finish the year. As well as my oldest friend Belinda. I could not have done it without their love and help. We ended the season with mom knitting everyone a bracelet that we taught the kids how to decorate with buttons. The fun will continue this summer when I do my first summer camp in South Orange. SPRING CLASSES ARE UNDERWAY, AND OH WHAT FUN WE ARE HAVING. BRACELETS ARE OUR NEWEST PROJECT. KIDS CAN'T STOP WEAVING. KNITTERS ARE GETTING VERY CREATIVE AND THE FUN JUST CONTINUES.
