What a day! The Pottstown KnitOut came and went! It was a blast. I really enjoyed being in a room with 200 other knitters! I met lots of new friends. The knitting ladies and I shared a table with a mother/daughter pair. The Daughter works at a yarn store near my aunt and both Mother and Daughter were in my knitting backwards class.
I learned a lot from the class. I had learned to knit backwards a few years ago and it didn’t stick. This time, it just clicked! Just for s’ and g’s, I’m going to use the technique on my scrap yarn blanket once and a while.
Along with meeting new friends, I saw some familiar faces! I ran into Eileen from my yarn store knitting group. She invented an awesome way to keep her yarn balls from tangling! (As seen in the top right pic of collage!)
Along with classes and friends, there was food and door prizes! I got lots of food and I won a door prize! It was a gift certificate to one of the vendors. I chose a kit that had a pattern I’ve been eyeing with some cool yarn.
All and all, it was an awesome day. I’m a little hoarse from talking and I’m a bit tired. I’m now relaxing with some vino and my loyal Louet wheel, Julie. Life is good!
Stay tuned…
