Stitches East 2008
I made my way to Baltimore on Thursday for Stitches East, along with thousands of other knitters.
Thursday night Jessica and I listened to Cat Bordhi talk about the architecture of sox.
Cat Bordhi = brilliant
Karida Collins of the Neighborhood Fiber Company hosted me for a book signing on Friday (thanks, Karida!)
She has a book coming out in March with F & W Publications called Pints & Purls.
I met Catherine Gagnon and Courtney Kelley of Kelbourne Woolens. They are now exclusive distributors of The Fibre Company!
Jessica amidst crazy yarn shopping ladies.
Here’s what I came home with – not too bad, right?
My very own Jordana Paige bag! It has some super nerdy awesome knitter specific features, I love it.
And my new love: malabrigo everything. I specifically brought home a skein of lace weight and a skein of sock yarn.
And now to take a break from traveling for a while…

Funny that your blog about Stitches East begins with a picture of the USS Constellation. The first picture on my blog for the Stitches East event was also a picture of that beautiful ship. You must have been sitting outside of the Irish bar just as we were. Lovely!
