The studio was alive with cocoknits admirers and samples

PS I found more pics!


Last weekend was very busy at the studio---lots of knitting, eating, drinking, trying on samples etc.

On Saturday we had the last of the Sawtooth Skirt Class and look at those fabulous skirts. Kira K's design is not only terrific looking but also very comfortable to wear . (And I should mention that Kira is a great teacher too) I was so taken with the skirt that I rushed over to Artfibers yesterday and bought myself the makings for the skirt. I'll keep you posted on how it goes!

On Sunday the studio was filled with Cocoknits designs and people trying on her sweaters. I am sorry I didn't get a lot of photos---I was so busy giving my opinions to people as they tried on her great creations that I forgot my photographing duties. (I know it will come as a surprise to many of you that I was giving opinions!) Julie gave a demo of her great knitter's blocks and some very wise people decided to buy them after seeing how they helped in the blocking process---- which for most of us is not our favourite part of knitting. (but with the knitter's blocks it is infinitely more palatable!)

Julie has created a line of desk accessories which were given their first public outing on Sunday. Our friend Ricardo was so taken with them that he bought the pattern in order to make a tray for dice---he's a gamer don't you know---gamer in the positive sense!

Others at the event signed up for Cocoknits Classbeginning this coming Sunday. For this class, you can choose any of Julie's designs and work on them with the designer herself. Some complained that the class should go on for months since they wanted to make everything! Mmmmm.....maybe not a bad idea. What about it Julie---ha!
