Ignore the long absence. Sometime last February this blog turned....20?! Despite pointing my energies at other channels/commitments/activities, I miss blogging.It's good to write a little. I can draw a line from my 2005 awkward hop into the blogging world to truly wonderful present life connections. It's nothing short of amazing. So...here's what I am up to...
PHOTO BOOTH AT A WOOLEN AFFAIR OCT 16-17TH
Last March I had a photo booth at Nash Yarn Fest--it was a total blast. When Catherine Clark, who puts on A Woolen Affair, the yarn and music fest the day before NY Sheep & Wool Festival (aka Rhinebeck) asked me to bring it to her event, I didn't hesitate . Maybe I'll see you there? Come say hi !
If you want a photo session sign up in advance-- I'll only take a few walkups and I suspect it's going to get crazy (in a good way, chaos plus happy). I'm planning to be back at Nash Yarn Fest in April 2026, too.
Speaking of Modern Daily Knitting (Nash Yarn Fest's hostesses with the mostesses), I am thrilled to be teaching a MDK VIRTUAL PHOTO CLASS for Ann & Kay. It's rolling around soon- November 7th- and seriously, it is going to be a good one. Info (and sometimes a large picture of me) at the links.
Of course I am still knitting and making stuff! Above is my so-called Rhinebeck sweater. As in vaguely aimed at finishing it before next week Friday, accent on vague. This morning I upended a mug of black coffee into my knitting bag . It's drying from a quick bath rather than being worked on. It's a Piilo sweater, it'll be cropped and not gathered in at the bottom hem and maybe not fully long sleeved. I'm finding I like stripes a lot this year, what about you? I'm not print person for clothing normally.
(The yarn is Kelbourne Woolens Scout, I recommend it)
