This week I’m going to Rhinebeck to attend the NY Wool and Sheep Festival. On Thursday I will be attending a workshop with Galina Khmeleva on Orenburg Lace, which should be a lot of fun. And on Friday there is a workshop on Reversible Cables with Lily Chin. In preparation for the Reversible Cables class, I have been preparing a number of swatches. There are 5 different kinds of ribbed swatches with worsted weight wool and 5-6 mm (US 8-10) needles. Since I’ve been working with only lace weight and fingering weight wool all summer, the worsted weight yarn felt enormous by comparison. I am really looking forward to both workshops, and hope to learn some new and interesting techniques.
I will also be attending the festival on Saturday before I head home in the evening. I’m always scouting for new yarn for the KALs as well as the other designs, and I’m sure there will be lots of interesting vendors. On Saturday I will be walking around wearing the brand new Tanumshede Shawl. If you’re there, please say hello.
Hi Anna,
Wow! Lovely patterns. It was nice to meet you. Hope you enjoyed the festival.
See you down the yarn trail,
Wendy
Hi Anna,
I love the Tanumshede scarf and am wondering when you will have it available for sale. Your designs are very beautiful!
cheers,
Julie.
Hello Julie!
Thank you! Right now the Tanumshede pattern is only available as part of the World Heritage KAL (Seasons of Lace – Autumn). It’s a set of three patterns; L’Anse Aux Meadows, Tanumshede, and Jelling.
It will be available separately sometime after the completion of the KAL.
