This past weekend I was at the yearly Yarn Today Knitting retreat held in Logan, Utah. It was my first time there. I had the opportunity to teach a Chart Reading and Lace Knitting class. I was told my class went very well, but I hardly remember it. Got to love adrenaline. I was quite tired after the retreat, but had great fun. Here’s some pictures of what I got from it, and what projects I completed from it. Of course I didn’t take as many pictures as I should have! And didn’t get any permission to post peoples pictures to the blog, so they will just be object pictures.

Hey, how did the clogs turn out? They look great… did you reknit them? They look like they have a great cuff/bootie effect. Super kudos on the double knitting. I haven’t picked it up since retreat. I am going to reclaim the yarn for clogs. I am still knitting clogs clogs and more clogs. Did you enjoy making them? I am actually sore from retreat – too much knitting in non-back friendly chairs. I am so sad to say that… I am old, get sore and achy from knitting
( Thanks again for the class and for the conversation and company. You know I am also just a phone call away if you ever want an ear instead of a computer screen.
