IK Knitting Lab is a unique conference.\u00a0 A smaller hotel and less participants create an intimate and friendly atmosphere.\u00a0 I taught 5 different subjects, only one of which involved intarsia (Argyle Socks, a perennial favorite), which allowed me to share other knitting passions such as Bohus Stickning, and finishing techniques.\u00a0 I just love knitting, and answering questions, and seeing what knitters produce in a creative and supportive environment.\u00a0 It was a delightful conference.<\/p>\n

I managed to restrain myself at the market, but a few things had to come home with me.\u00a0 First, I found some gradient small skeins from Pigeonroof Studios<\/a> .\u00a0 As an intarsia designer, I am a sucker for small amounts of color, and loved the sample that was in the teacher gift bag.\u00a0 These colors have a depth and subtle beauty that called to me.\"photo<\/a><\/p>\n

Then, I turned the corner and discovered Canon Hand Dye<\/a>s.\u00a0 The dyer, Amy Lee is actually from my home town of Portland, OR, but I had to travel to California to find her!\u00a0 She had a whole rainbow of gradients for me to snap up!\u00a0 So, I did.<\/p>\n

I couldn’t resist the Dream in color<\/a> club selection for November, so that had to come home with me, too.\"photo<\/a><\/p>\n

And students Tirzah and Kezzie surprised me with a gift of 2 balls of soft and yummy angora\/merino blend which is destined to be a cowl, I think.\"photo<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In other news, I finished Monomania, and it was a real attention-grabber at Knitting Lab!\u00a0 I was repeatedly photographed, and giving out the name of the pattern, designer (Ann Weaver) and yarn info (Plucky<\/a> Feet, Special Reserve colorway combo).\u00a0 It is very comfortable, versatile, and I know it will be a wardrobe staple.<\/p>\n
