I’m SUPER excited to be here in Columbus at TNNA (for my non-knitting friends, that’s the big industry trade show featuring all kinds of needle arts).
Tomorrow I have a book signing at the Unicorn booth! Their reserved tickets are all gone, but if you’d like to attend you can stop by their booth ahead of time and ask whether they might have a few left to give out. I’m very grateful to Unicorn for this opportunity!
For the first time, TNNA offered a Professional Development class for knitwear designers. Jill Wolcott and Jeane DeCoster taught us the (k)nitty gritty of sizing, using spreadsheets to help with the numbers and (gulp) math for writing patterns for multiple sizes. Both have extensive experience in the fashion industry and imparted a tremendous amount of knowledge. It was a fantastic class, and one I’m sure my tech editors will appreciate my having taken!
