What A Weekend


I'm back from an exciting weekend in Baltimore, MD. I went to Stitches East. I was in knitting heaven and I also got a chance to visit my baby sister (she is 26). It was so nice to see so many people with a shared love of knitting. I took two excellent classes...


Cables... teacher JC Briar...she actually help me get over my fear of reading pattern tables... I enjoyed this class..she didn't lecture alot but came around and gave a good demo of stitches when I had a problem.


Pattern Customization...teacher Gwen Bortner very good information...being the math junkie that I am I liked how with using math you can customize any pattern to fit the yarn you want to use



Between classes I wandered done to the vendor area...Oh My...I had two hours and my goal was to just browse..but then I came across the "Woolstock" booth and let's just say both arms were full with bags of yarn. After this trip I am officially on a yarn strike.
