Note Abe in the knit shop.  Even he couldn’t get over how super cool it was there.

Knit This, Purl That Book Signing

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

I drove over the Bay Bridge for the first time ever and made my way to Knit This, Purl That in Pleasanton.  Despite it being an exceptionally warm day, there was a great turn out.  Thanks to every one who came down!

Glenna had already marked all the patterns she wants to make, color coded by yarn she already has and yarn she needs to get.  I can’t wait to see some finished products!
