Fleece Artist




The highlight of this cruise for me was going to Fleece Artist and watching them dye yarn out in the barn.I bought so much of their yarn. I am so in love. This yarn is just so beautiful and soft. I dont even want to knit with it yet, I just want to look at it. Feel it!! Im sure it will eventually tell me what it wants to be. Hopefully I will listen.

More Canadian Cruise

Canadian Cruise 08


Well folks here I am on my long awaited Canadian Knitters Cruise. I am wearing the Clapotis from Knitty.com.Made from Noro Silk Garden on a size 8 needle. Our cruise took us to the New England States, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Saguenay and on into Quebec City,Quebec. We had a fabulous time. Joan Schrouder and Joan McGowan-Michael were our instructors. I am already signed up for the November 09 cruise(with craft cruises.com) going to Hawaii. I am so excited. I live for the next adventure.

Clapotis


The Clapotis is finally done. Actually I was done a few weeks ago but was not able to get it posted. I used 8 skeins of Noro Silk Garden Yarn and a size 8 needle. I really love it and it gets rave reviews wherever it goes! More pictures of a new baby jacket coming soon.
