In My Travels
- Vogue Knitting Live this past weekend was great!
- Saturday I took Susan B Anderson’s Seamless Doll Workshop where we worked on the Mary, Millie & Morgan pattern. I learned so much and had so much more fun because I went with my friend Jen from the Commuter Knitter Podcast.
- Sunday I went back to attend a panel discussion on “Design is a process” with Josh Bennett, Amy Herzog, Susan B Anderson, Laura Nelkin and Stephen West! What a line up!!
- I also did some shopping!
- I got to meet Marsha from One Geek to Craft Them All (one of our Pigskin Party KAL Sponsors) and score some of her beautiful stitch markers.
- I also bought some yarn! And even cast on with some of it right away!
On a Happy Note
- Weight loss challenge with our friends is going well and I’ve already lost a few pounds.
- I enjoy going to the movies with friends. Recently I saw Into the Woods & The Wedding Ringer.
- I’ve gotten a few great items from Stitch Fix recently!
- I’m just happy that things have turned around. The beginning of the month was a bummer between car issues, a break-in and being sick… that started turning around when I came home to 2 unexpected care packages.
- Thanks to the Oh Loops ladies, Sarah & Lydia. And to Allison from My Colour Wheelhouse!
