I really need to finish posting about TNNA, because it was so amazing, but in the meantime, I’m going to tell you a little bit about Stitches West, because it’s coming up soon! I’m sorry I haven’t been posting much — I’ve been super busy and I’ve had a lot of migraines. So, here’s the scoop!
If you’re local to the Bay Area, or if you’ll be in town sometime during February 26th through March 1st, stop by booth 832 at Stitches West and say “Hi!” There’s a show preview for people taking classes on Thursday night from 5-8pm, and the market is open to the general public on Friday and Saturday from 10am-6pm, and on Sunday from 10am-4pm. For any of you going to the Fashion Show, Sicily and my Burana Jacket will be shown, so keep an eye out for them!
All my inventory will be with me in booth 832, along with pattern samples for each of my patterns! My inventory now includes: my entire line of original knitting patterns, my hand-dyed yarn and fiber, my mom’s framed original oil and acrylic paintings and greeting cards made from them, my hand-crafted soaps and hand-sewn project bags, Fiber Fiend tote bags, t-shirts, & lapel pins, Louet octagon and top-whorl drop spindles, & even more!
You can find most things that will be in my booth on my website. It doesn’t have the T-shirts/Tote Bags/Lapel Pins, Drop Spindles, Paintings or Greeting Cards, but I hope to have that stuff up on the site sometime soon.
I hope to see many of you there, and some of you with your Esmerelda shrugs in progress! Unfortunately, since I’ve had so many problems with my health recently, I only think I’ll be able to get 2-3 sets of instructions out before Stitches, but that should be enough to have some people with some interesting work to show! I should have the first instructions out in the next week or so.
Cheers!
