Teaching over the next few months

Thursday, May 5th, 2011

I’m going to be doing a bit of teaching over the next few months; I’ll be returning to Crafty Alley in Killarney a few times (Finishing Touches in May and Top Down Knitting in September) and of course traveling to London for Knit Nation this summer.  See full details of all the classes here.  I’m both excited and amazed to see that two of my Knit Nation classes sold out within 24 hours!  There are still places left in the remaining two classes so if you’re thinking about taking one go on and book!

While we were in Florida I took advantage of the warmer weather to squeeze in a photo shoot on the beach for a new summer top.  We took the photos just before sunset so there was a wonderful orange glow in the sky…just looking at them makes me wish I was back.  Here’s a sneak peek of a corner of the garment, hopefully it’ll be released by the end of the month.

Check back here tomorrow, I’ll the next stop for More Knitting the Sun blog tour…

Can I get your help??

The wrap that I knit at Christmas when I was in holiday is Florida is almost ready to release.  The charts are done, it has been tech edited and we are working on the final layout.  However I am having a hard time with a name.  While I was working on it I always described it as my ‘Wave Wrap’ or the ‘Scalloped Wave wrap’ but somehow they don’t fully convey the feel of the wrap.

If you want to give a go at naming the wrap I’ll love some suggestions, and if I choose your name I’ll send a copy of the final pattern pdf to you when it is releases (hopefully this weekend!).

Here are some photos of the wrap:
