Yarn Harlot visit

Yarn Harlot a.k.a. Stephanie Pearl-McPhee is visiting the IKnit show in London in September. Tickets are available online from www.iknit.org.uk for £14 incl. lecture from Yarn Harlot or £9 for the show only. Tickets went on sale yesterday and I was happy to get one. Although I only live 20 miles from London, I rarely venture there as I find it a grubby and stressful experience most of the time. However, this should be worth the trip.

Yarn Harlot's blog ( see link left ) is one of the better ones out there ( says she whose own blog is so good! ) She hails from Toronto, Canada and has a lot of humorous things to say about the world of knitting. Her books are a good read too.

Meanwhile, on the knitting front, Argosy is progressing well although I'm a little annoyed at the number of knots in some of the balls of Kureyon! At group,Dani showed us photos of her "hommage" to Vivienne Westwood - a felted top with applied leaves. Get the girl a blog I say!

There were 13 of us this week which made for a jolly party.

My first week back at work was OK though a little tiring. Good to get back in the routine though!
