New blog

2011-11-20T17:24:00.000-08:00

I've started a new blog. This is purely for my fibre arts related work, for inspiration and development.

Also, it means I can export this blog for submission for AVC and so on. Downloading my usual blog would have been an incredibly massive file!!!

Harrogate Knitting and Stitching Show

24-27 November 2011, Creative Exhibitions Knitting & Stitching Show, Harrogate International Centre.

I will be working at this show as part of the Knit 1 - pass it on program alongside the uk handknitting society. My shift is Friday 25th and I'm really looking forward to passing on what I've learnt so far. The application was very formal, which was a little off putting and made me feel like an unknowledgeable knitter. However, this can be seen in a different light. I simply put that I'm a 'rogue crafter' and that I don't always stick to the rules.....

....which is true!

Most of my knitting/crochet experience has been gained from youtube videos and muddling my way through patterns, as well as little bits of advice and demos from different people along the way.

I hope I meet some fellow rule breakers, or perhaps change some opinions about the 'fuddy-duddyness' of yarn crafts.
