This month there is something extra, though!\u00a0 I will be giving a virtual lecture on Friday, 3\/19 which is very dear to my heart – how Knitting has been presented in published form over the past 125 years.\u00a0 I had a fabulous time going through my library to find the pamphlets\/magazines\/books that have influenced generations of knitters.\u00a0 It was difficult to choose the ones that I felt represented the eras best, and that I considered really important.\u00a0 \u00a0I chose publications that started a trend, influenced style, or were incredible learning tools.\u00a0 Books have power that holds across generations. Magazines have personalities that change with their editors.<\/p>\n

Knitting pamphlets created by yarn companies have offered patterns to sell yarn, and highlight fashions of their era as well as a peek at how pattern writing has changed over time.\u00a0 Now, in the electronic age, Ravelry is a huge influencer.<\/p>\n

I’ve been fortunate to know many authors in the current era, and my love for them is sprinkled through the lecture.\u00a0 Eventually, I became an author myself, and benefited greatly in that experience from the knowledge that I gained from others.\u00a0 Videos and classes are amazing tools for modern knitters, but most of us teaching learned from books!\u00a0 It is a slower way to learn, but tends to really stick with you.\u00a0 I refer to my library constantly, and although it takes as much space as my yarn stash does, they are both equally important to me.\u00a0 \u00a0We need our tools, don’t we?\u00a0 Needles, yarn and my library are cherished assets for me that I take very seriously.\u00a0 But, they are also fun, and sources of great joy.<\/p>\n
