[Translate] I’m very happy to tell you that episode 2 of the show is now up. You can find it on YouTube by clicking this link …… Episode 2 … or stay on this site and watch it here!

It’s Time!!

[Translate] Well, by the time you read this, it will be! What time? 7:00 PM BST (British Summer Time). Time to register for classes at Perth Festival of Yarn 2019 and get your tickets! And by Perth, I mean Perth, Scotland, not Australia (maybe somebody should put together one there). I’m also pleased to say that I’ll be teaching two classes there as well, on guess what? CABLES!! There will be a beginner cables class on Sunday morning, then an advanced class that same afternoon. I promise I won’t have you twisted in knots though! I’ll also be joined […]

Home again … for now! ;)

[Translate] Wow!! What an amazing 2 months it has been! If you haven’t been following my Facebook or Instagram posts, you might not know that I have been traveling across the UK and Europe for the last 2 months!

I’m interrupting my regular postings to bring you this quick review of an absolutely stupendous event, especially for a first year! I would have to say the theme of the event this year was #colour!! It was everywhere, vibrant, and saturated. Here is a link to a walk through I did on Facebook. Unfortunately, because of the size of it, it didn’t upload in HD. 🙁 Woollinn Walkthrough There was an great list of instructors teaching […]

LYSes in the Lower Mainland (Part 1) …

[Translate] I would like to apologize for not posting in almost a week. I won’t get into the details of why as I promised to keep this a knitting site, but I have been very busy and very challenged as of late. I am hoping the worst of  it is over and everything can settle back into a nice even rhythm again. Thankfully I have been knitting, which is a good thing. I think I would go crazy if I didn’t get a chance to knit on a regular basis. I have also been able to maintain my resolution […]
