I would be interesting in backing the kickstarter but it looks like they are digitizing mostly children's patterns.
Thanks for showing her patterns I'll be sure to look at them next time I knit a sweater!
Penny Straker's knitting patterns
There's a Kickstarter project going right now to fund converting Penny Straker's knitting patterns into digital format. Since every little bit helps, I've kicked in my contribution. There are lots of reasons why, even on a slim budget any spare bits of which tend to go toward the acquisition of ...
Why not talk to the British consulate in Denver?
UK visa saga, continuing
I spent a lot of last week working on how to get a visa to teach short, small-group, low-key workshops in the United Kingdom. A friend wrote, "It seems it shouldn't be that difficult!" That made me laugh, because it's turning out to be one of the most bureaucratically difficult tasks I've ever e...
I think you would really like Kate's blog:
http://katedaviesdesigns.com
She has just written a book "Colours of Shetland".
"My name is Kate Davies. I live in Edinburgh with Tom (a man) Bruce (a labrador retriever) and Jesus (a cat). I love writing, designing, and walking in our wonderful Scottish landscape. I find that all of these activities have a creative and a critical dimension and the best of possible worlds is one in which I productively combine them all.
Some days I feel like a writer who enjoys designing knitwear, on others I seem to be a designer preoccupied with textile history. On most days I feel like someone who is recovering from a serious stroke, though one hopes that this may change in time. I produced this book and have written many features about fashion and textile history for Rowan, The Knitter, Twist Collective , Selvedge, and many other magazines. I also produce my own digital magazine, Textisles."

The hard drive (six months old) on my computer (4+ years old) died completely on Friday, which explains the computer's increasingly balky behavior. The drive is under warranty, but at the moment the computer is best suited for use a...
I tried to sign the petition above - it didn't work.
Would you consider putting a donation button on your pages (paypal etc). I would donate.
BC Poised to be Designated ISA Virus Positive? - CFIA steps in
British Columbia is poised to be designated ISA virus positive. A few weeks ago the Office of International Epizootics, OIE, changed the definition of an ISA virus positive region. Instead of having to diagnose the disease, today detection of any strain of the virus is enough to designate a regio...
