Katie Gerwien presented a knit-along program introducing entrelac knitting.

The minutes from the January and February 2011 meetings were approved.

The treasurer was not present, thus the treasurer’s report was not received.

The president welcomed and introduced three new members to the guild.

Debbie Henderson gave an update on the 2011 guild charity knit-in. Nine guild members participated and produced 23 hats for charity.

The guild voted on the proposed name for the guild’s newsletter, with “Purls of Wisdom” selected.

Trink Dahl-Prince advised the April 2011 program will feature 3 master knitters who will discuss the Knitting Guild of America’s master knitting program.

The president advised we did not participate in the Virginia Beach Spring Craft Fair this year as the paperwork arrived too late to organize the event.

The president advised the Gathering of the Guilds will take place on April 9, 2011 at the Frances Land House.

The Ways and Means Committee raffled items from The Yarn Club.

There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
