What a Fun Weekend!

How wonderful it is to be able to see all the samples ion real life! man, I can’t wait for Malabrigo’s new book. Book 6 does not have a lot of patterns, but every one is something I would like to do! The big hit was the top down cardigan with the slip stitch cable. It was a huge success! the fact that they knit it in really bright Arco Iris. Gorgeous!! The long tube scarf with bits of fair isle knit in silkpaca was also a huge hit! It is a scarf, but it can be a hat as well- right Ann!!
Book 6 should be here in 4-6 weeks. Let me know if you want a copy!!

Congrats to Julie for finishing her River Run Shawl!
