This is a plug for my friend Gayle Roehm, expert on working with Japanese knitting patterns. She's coming to Madison in April, and I'm very excited to be able to see her. I'm also excited that you will be able to see her, too (at least if you are within driving distance).
She will be teaching three different classes at The Sow's Ear on April 10 & 11, and will be the featured speaker at the Madison Knitter's Guild on the 12th.
Japanese designs feature some of the most innovative stitch patterns I have seen, the garments can be spectacular, and you don't have to read Japanese to use them as they are entirely charted. You may need a little help to get the hang of the charting system, and that's what Gayle can (and will) provide.
Can't wait. Are you going to the guild meeting? Sit with me? Huhwillya?
ReplyDeleteHow exciting. For a minute I did a double take...Where was I going?jk
ReplyDeleteHave fun with the classes and be sure and let us know how they went.
Happy Knitting.
I really, really wanted to sign up for Gayle's classes. But, I will be in Denver caring for a sister who will just have had back surgery. Have a great time and convince Gayle to come back again.
