Internationally popular knitting enthusiast and author Stephanie Pearl-McPhee will visit Full Thread Ahead in Los Altos Saturday. This is her only Northern California appearance, and she will sign books for a limited number of people.

She has written three books, and her most recent is “Knitting Rules” (Storey Publishing, 2006).

Pearl-McPhee has become enormously popular through her blog, titled the “Yarn Harlot.” She also founded Knitting Without Borders in 2004, a group dedicated to raising money for the non-profit Doctors Without Borders. To date, they have raised more than $117,000.

Pearl-McPhee will speak at 5:30 p.m. in the outdoor theatre behind Full Thread Ahead, 169 Main St. More than 300 people are expected at the event, so RSVP to save a spot and get your book signed.

For more information or to RSVP, call 948-9036 or visit www.fullthreadahead.com.

In Our Opinion

Editorial

We’ve recently covered the passing of two of this community’s most involved and committed volunteers, Lee Lynch and Billy Russell. They represented an era when people helped out, not so they could get their name on a building, but because it was simply the right thing to do.

There’s a new generation of volunteers hard at work right now in this community who are carrying on their legacy. The level of involvement in the recent Los Altos Relay For Life event bears this out.
