Anna and Kaffe
Last week-end I had the pleasure of going to Rowan's Mill at Holmfirth for the Kaffe Fassett workshop and here is a picture of Kaffe and me with my masterpiece which I produced over the week-end.
There were 40 of us on the workshop and we were sat at tables of 8. Our table was Jill Richards, Nancy Jobling, Sam Godden, Felicity Miller, Judith Ruyssevelt, Sheelagh Kendra, Sheena Peters and myself. We were regularly joined by Kaffe and Brandon who worked us hard to ensure we produced a fine piece of work by the end of the 2 days. We all did.

Dodi, Rowan Design Consultant at Liberty's also spent time with us giving us guidance on yarn tension and also colour.
I came away with many an idea and have since purchased a few wicker baskets to display my odd balls in. The plan is to make a long scarf in lots of different colours using odd balls of yarn and working from Kaffe's new book - Pattern Library - to put motifs and borders into the scarf. This will be an on-going project.
Good grief Anna, you made that lovely swatch in one weekend? So talented!
Who knew Brandon Malby was so, well, short! Or at least not as tall as I thought....

I keep listening to the news speak about getting free online grant applications so I have been looking around for the best site to get one.
