Good morning Everyone,
I had a wonderful e-mail from my friend and
fellow free former, Prudence Mapstone
http://knotjustknitting.com
awhile ago. Actually Prudence sent this e-mail
before my accident, and unfortunately, it got
put aside.
It seems a fan of mine, Geraldine McGovern,
from Australia, wore a capelet that she made
from my book FUN WITH FREE FORM
(available at Annie's Attic or my web page) to
Textile Arts Association Meeting. Prudence
took pictures of Geraldine and sent them to
me. Geraldine used a yarn called On-Line
Clip instead of the Berroco Glace, that I used,
but her capelet looks terrific. Great job
Geraldine, thanks for sharing.
Have a great day!

Good Morning Everyone,
I am feeling so much better, just about back
to my old self. I have returned to my weekly
teaching class, and I plan to go to Texas next
week to teach at the Dallas/Fort Worth Fiber
Fest.
I have not had anything new to report on
fiber adventures in the past month, but
hopefully that will change soon.
I did manage to finish my latest book,
(contents still under wraps) and will be
mailing off the final 2 projects on Monday.
KNITS FOR MEN will be in the bookstores
June 1st, and is already on amazon.com
for pre-order. This book is a departure for
me, as I never did a whole book devoted to
men's knits, but I had such fun doing it.
I interviewed lots of men, friends, relatives,
perfect strangers, asking them what they
liked, or did not like, about sweaters. I
listened to what they said, and tried to
include something for every one's taste.
I will be teaching at both CGOA/TKGA
conferences in New Hampshire this summer,
and Portland, Oregon in the fall.
Looking forward to meeting some of you at
these events.
Have a great day.

Hi Everyone,
I have not been posting to my blog for awhile
as I slipped on the ice almost 2 weeks ago.
I ended up in the hospital with a fractured
vertibrae, and a few other injuries, I had
surgery, now I am at home recuperating. I am
trying to get well in a hurry as I am teaching
at the Dallas/Fort Worth Fiber Fest in a few
weeks . Doctor assures me that I will be fine
by then, with a little bit of luck I will be there.
Have a great day.
Margaret
