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!
Hannah! It was great to see you. Thanks for hanging in my booth. Can’t wait to see you at Stitches West!
