I haven’t blogged for a while because I’ve still been having bouts of illness and writing about feeling ill must be about as boring as the being ill itself! So that’s why I haven’t blogged recently. I have still been blogging on KnitCast<\/a> though and posting interviews over there.<\/p>\n

At the moment I’m in London for The Knitting and Stitching Show<\/a>. I was too exhausted for it today though. Jeni<\/a> and I arrived in London very late last night and then had to get up early this morning. I wasn’t able to get much sleep because I was worried about waking up on time in the morning! <\/p>\n

So today has been a bit of a haze. Inbetween the haze I interviewed Andrew Salmon managing director of the organisers of the show, Creative Exhibitions, and met up with my friend Michele for lunch. I also met Kristine<\/a> and her friend Debbie<\/a>, Kerrie<\/a> and her dad, and Yvonne one of the Rowanettes. It’s still strange to meet people with whom you’ve emailed and sometimes even actually spoken to before, yet never met in person.<\/p>\n

I also bought some Colinette<\/a> Graffiti in Fruit Couli. I’m trying to be good and not buy too much yarn, mainly because next Friday we fly to San Francisco for six days, but it is difficult when you’re with Sue and Carole from Get Knitted<\/a>. I mean why do they have to have such wonderful yarn? Why couldn’t they make it easy for me and sell nasty yarn? No instead they sell Fyberspates and Louisa Harding angora etc. and I feel my resolve slipping! It’s not easy! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

On the knitting froont, in blog absence I’ve finished one top-down-raglan cardi, nearly finished another and have started yet another. The newly started one is from Art Fibers Kyoto. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
