Recently, I knit myself a hat. I knit myself a Piece of Pi, but I decided to add a little twist to the top. I love this hat, because it is a good hair day hat. You can be having a good hair day and wear your hat and still be having a good hair day when you take it off.I also love this hat, because it is knit out of Classic Elite Yarns Fresco, which is one of my very favorite yarns. I just love the way the angora blooms in your hands while you are knitting with it. Fresco has made me fall head over heels for the bunny!Both Madeline (that would be the cute 13 year old black lab above) and mancake were pretty impressed with the hat and mancake said he would like one for himself. Mancake does not ask for handknits very often, so this was a special request on his part and since I like him so much I headed off to the
yarn shop and picked out many colors and brought them home for inspection. Some made the cut and others did not. Here he is contemplating his relationship with Madeline.


More to follow on this topic in a couple of days. Stay tuned...

As previously posted, I recently attended my first Trade Show and thought I should finally share some pictures, which include the amazing displays that mancake made for me! These displays were a lot of work and as always I am amazed by mancake's abilities to take my visions and make them into something real.
Here is a picture of me at the order taking table and yes that beautiful sign was also made by the above mentioned handy guy!

Here are the displays in action.


More samples...

I had a great first show and was extremely grateful for
Sarah's help and support and grateful to all the shop owners and shop staff, who came in to see my line and to add it to their shop patterns!
