Stitches West Review – Part 4

I’m sure you’ve decided you’re going to make a valiant effort to attend Stitches West next year – or at least another major knitting event near you. Even still, I’m going to post once more about Stitches West.

Now I have to warn you that it’s a 4 day event for the attendees, but much, much, longer for the vendors, teachers, and behind the scenes staff. I could never come close to covering it in a single blog post. Truthfully, I couldn’t do it justice in a dozen! There is just no way short of […]
