My latest design!

I designed this hat to teach a fair isle class at The Knitting Bee. It is knit with very soft Manos Maxima and Noro Kureyon for the contrast. The Noro changes colors as it goes creating a muli colored fair isle with only two yarns. It is commonly referred to as fake isle. I really like how this hat turned out and am looking forward to teaching two handed fair isle at the Bee!

My Boy is Home!

I am not sure that I have let you all know that my biggest boy has traveled to Europe twice in the last two months to fence. He is one of 20 US male foil fencers in his age group to qualify to fence Cadet World Cups. He first traveled to Budapest and place 13th out of 198. This last weekend he fenced in Halle Germany and he placed 11th out of 180 fencers. I am so proud of him. So I thought I would share a picture of the boy at the last tournament in Halle!
While he has been fencing I have been busy knitting! My camera is broken so I am only able to share things when other people take the pictures! So Tanya took this picture of me in my Santa Hat at the Knitting Bee the other day! Oh and this pattern is available at the Bee for free with a purchase:)
