The Muse Connection Volume 2
Hello!
Not only did I have a fibre-filled Saturday, but this Sunday I had the pleasure of joining A Playful Day's Kate and Curious Handmade's Helen at their Muse Connection event. This is the second (Volume 2, as they are calling it) of the events which are like a knit night with added goody bags, door prizes and inspirational talks.
It was wonderful to hear about creative beginnings from knitwear designer Rachel Coopey, (spoiler: keep calm and keep yarn in the boot, also, learn to love the startitis)...
and co-founder/editor of Pom Pom Quarterly Lydia Gluck (my cliff notes on that one: Don't think, jus start. Wise words I live by...).
We all enjoyed some beautiful meringues and possibly the tastiest brownies I have had this side of the Atlantic. The goody bags featured a beautiful shawl pattern from Pom Pom Quarterly, sock pattern from Rachel Coopey and a skein of Anzula, a super luxurious 4 ply yarn.
All in all an excellent weekend indeed....
Happy knitting,
R.
