UK stitch n bitch day

Today was the terrific 1st UK StitchI Knit London day in Bloomsbury. Gerard and Craig from iknit organised the whole thing, and it was a great success. It had the excitement of Ally Pally, but a much better atmosphere. Everyone was a committed knitter, there was plenty of seating, music, a bar, speciality vendors, workshops and lots to see and do.


The centrepiece was the launch of Debbie Stoller's new book for men. We were very privileged, as apparently it's not even available in the US yet. There was a catwalk show from the book:






Debbie did a workshop on double knitting.


Some people knitted hamsters.


Or pompoms for peace.

More to come.

Looks great! Sorry I missed it, the weather in Derbyshire wasn't so good for walking but still had a nice time catching up with my friend. Look forward to seeing stash enhancements...
