Salty Knits

http://ideaphoria.prettyposies.com/archives/000170.html I've spent the past four days in a very intensive workshop taught by Catherine Lowe. (It was two workshops, really -- the first two days were the "Basics of Couture Knitting," and the second two days were "Designer Details." But there was enough building of skills and information based on what happened one and two days before, that I'm just going to call it one workshop.)

http://www.schoolhousepress.com/lace.htm This beautiful new book, Arctic Lace, fills a large gap in our lace-and-fiber history category and the author, Donna Druchunas, gives us a history of Alaska's knitters - with dozens of wonderful, historic photographs - plus the founding of Oomingmak Co-op, comprised of native knitters who produce stunning knitted items from Qiviut, the incredibly soft down from an unlikely source: Musk Oxen. There is an extensive How To Knit section, plus lace charts and about 15 projects -- from vests to fingerless gloves; scarves, hoods and hats, plus EZ's flat- version of the Möbius scarf. Softcover. $26.95

Since I'm travelling to Shreveport this today, and since that will take hours and hours, and it's hard to spin on a plane (somewhere Denny's hand just shot up and she said "No, no it's not!" http://www.yarnharlot.ca/blog/
