Knitting Without Boundaries

Valentina Devine is one of my favorite teachers, so I was delighted to be able to take a class with her. I’ve had freeform knitting classes from her before, and this one picked up where the last one left off. The swatch in the picture (sorry for crummy cell phone photos today, folks — I left my camera memory card in the computer yesterday) uses her swirl technique, and can be put together with many others to create a garment, a wall hanging, a pillow… you get the drift.

Here Valentina is displaying a shawl that uses the other technique we learned, called irregular swatching. It was a blast and I plan to share the fun when I get home.

Today I’m off to the Retailers Luncheon, where eating so-so banquet food is the price we pay to hear Kaffe Fassett speak. Then it’s on to more color work classes, this time with Brandon Mably.

I promise to remember the camera this time.
