Countdown to Renegade

My friends, we're on the final stretch to the Renegade Craft Fair in San Francisco!  True to form, I made my life more complicated by starting a new, part time job last week, so haven't had the time I'd originally planned to use for Renegade prep.

Ah well, what is life without far too much to do in the time allotted?

I'm working up new patterns all day today, including charts for lace!  And will be adding lace charts to existing patterns this week.

I have a couple of fun things to share with you this week, including a pattern review in a magazine (yay!) and a super fun workshop I went to yesterday, learning about kettle dyed and hand painted yarns (my favorites), knitting with them.  More to follow!

AND ... I was super tickled to meet a local knitting hero at the same even.  More on that as well!

(Darn, I can't believe I don't have photos to document either ...)

I will share more about the review, workshop and knitting hero this week.  Bear with me, though, as I relearn how to commute to a day job, in addition to Renegade prep, and then ... Renegade this coming weekend!!!
