Knitting With Nancy

So, the Nancy Bush class was great. She seemed so normal and down to earth! *grin* As The Harlot would say, "no soft glow coming off her or anything." Nancy's enthusiasm and love of knitting really showed in the way she taught--very calm and clear, but encouraging and excited, too. I, of course, bought two of her books (no, I didn't have any already--*hangs head*--not sure how I managed that). I picked up Knitting on The Road and Knitting Vintage Socks. She also shared that the Jan/Feb 2007 issue of Piecework Magazine will be entirely about the history of knitting, so mark your calendars! I didn't get any pictures (too busy knitting!), but maybe Chrissy or Katrina or any other other fab knitters who were there will come through with some. *grin*

Oh, I also purchased some Cashmerino Superchunky that will become this for Halloween. Yes, you clicked on the right link. :) The Boy (never mind that he's never seen Star Wars) has declared that he will be Darth Vader for Halloween. The Hubby wiggled his eyebrows at me and said, "Well, you know that means you have to be Princess Leia." I made it clear that I would be "white robe Leia" not "gold bikini Leia". LOL! And I will turn The Hubby into Obi-Wan Kenobi with my mad sewing skillz. Well, and 20 yards of fabric. *sigh*

Also, I've finished the front of The Boy's sweater and have seamed the shoulders. Just two little sleeves (and some garter stitch at the neck) to go! :)

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
