Wow, there was so much energy at the Hilton. Knitters, Crocheters, Spinners and Weavers all out to play with the yarn. I got completely over stimulated in the market place. Anything you could use for fiber crafts was available in abundance. My only criticism was that there was no marketplace on Monday.
I took a sweater design class with Leslye Solomon, owner of Woolstock Yarn Shop , during the class, another student was making a hat out of the most fabulous blue art yarn that had peacock feathers spun in to it. We were all so enchanted by the yarn that every student in the class wanted to run to the market place and buy some. Then we remember that there was no market place. What a bummer!
The high point for me was the Vogue Knitting fashion show. The people at Vogue had a surprise for us. Instead of showing the garments from the Winter issue they previewed the clothes from the Spring 2012 issue. The audience let out a collective squeeee! when we heard the announcement. There are some really fun trends for spring click here to see the pictures.
