This is my knitting table always busy at this time of year and actually t any times of year as apart from being a felter I am also knitwear author and designer.

I thought I would share with my felting friends the other side of my working life when I am surrounded with wool and designing whether it is for magazines or for yarn companies,right now I am designing a range for BC Garn in Denmark.

You all know I teach felt and printing as well but did you know I teach knitting  uncomplicating techniques and looking at knitting from many years ago and looking at differing structures.

As well as teaching in Denmark and Scandinavia I teach all over the British Isles and in my own place and also on cruise ships.
The next cruise brings me to the shores of many of my felting friends and I will sail from Quebec to Fort Lauderdale in early October next year right after teaching felt at the CFG in Michigan.
Cruising and crafting is great fun actually if you know of anyone who crochets and knits and wants to join in drop me an email for details.
Well the Christmas crafters table is nearly empty bit by bit,the Estonian style twinned knitted gloves and the fair isle gauntlets and ooh the silk and alpaca scarflette is done and was lovely to make.My little knitted Robin kept me company most days, I have knit millions of these and he is my last one so will stay with me now.
the long long grey and violet striped ridged scarf is finished the design books are full samples are done and my kitchen is now calling me

Have a cool YULE.
