I myself have been in Vancouver for a few weeks but mostly in the UK. As luck would have it, I had a fantastic month in Vancouver but missed the said week in the UK. The good news is that I&#8217;ll be heading back to Vancouver in time for FALL!! And for the <a href=\"http:\/\/knitsocial.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"KnitCity (opens in a new tab)\">KnitCity<\/a> yarn festival in early October. And maybe Rhinebeck? Or maybe to Barcelona for a knitting festival there? It&#8217;s all up in the air at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, one thing that is not up in the air is that I won&#8217;t be at Perth this coming weekend. While I am disappointed at not going, I&#8217;m more disappointed because it could have been avoided and I&#8217;m going to miss out on meeting a lot of people I had looked forward to meeting. For those that were planning on saying hello, I am sorry that this wasn&#8217;t announced earlier. I was asked not to say anything  as I was told there would be an official announcement, but it appears that isn&#8217;t happening. Please do keep in touch and I will do what I can to remedy this unfortunate situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The news isn&#8217;t all bad however as I was able to meet Jillian of <a href=\"http:\/\/mothyandthesquid.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Mothy and The Squid<\/a> and she introduced me to Kate of <a href=\"http:\/\/sealymacwheely.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Sealy MacWheely (opens in a new tab)\">Sealy MacWheely<\/a>. I&#8217;ve gotten footage of both and they will both be featured in an upcoming episode of the show!! I&#8217;ve also been able to nurture a few connections that will lead to some great events and collaborations in the near future. And speaking of the show, episode 5 will be up this week! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve also had an amazing visit with Susan Crawford of <a href=\"http:\/\/susancrawfordvintage.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Susan Crawford Vintage (opens in a new tab)\">Susan Crawford Vintage<\/a> and can&#8217;t wait to share all of that as well. That will be a multi-segment expos\u00e9 as Susan does so much on her farm it will amaze you! There&#8217;s lots more to show and tell but you&#8217;ll have to stay tuned here and on the  for all the details!
