Boston Handmade and some other notes

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

First, an announcement:

Boston Handmade Marketplace

Union Square ~ Somerville, MA

Saturday, June 28 ~ 3pm to 7pm

This event should be a lot of fun. it’s happening in m neighborhood, but sadly I think I have to go to a company picnic. But you should check it out if you are in Boston. Jessica, the ring leader, is a powerful fore of creativity and has a wonderful website the shows off many projects that are done by her group.

So other notes…

I was on the phone with a friend yesterday talking about the show and knitting, and I realized that I hadn’t done much of either in a while. It made me kinda sad.

It’s not that I have dropped of the face of the earth. I still get out to a lo of events locally, I just haven’t felt the creative juices power through the WIPS both knitting and blogging/podcasting. I have a lot of yarn and recording and would like to put to good use, but I find it hard to focus these days.

So… what I want to let you know is that I will be back as soon as I have the energy, and when I get back here is what to expect:

  • WWKIP 2008
  • NENA
  • MSKR 2008
  • PODCAMP

See you around the neighborhood…

WWKIP Boston 2008 : Copley Square 10-1.5

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

I wish I had something really clever to write today about where I have been and what I have been up to. I wish I could tell you that I have had nothing but cool knitting stuff in my life. But, reality is a cruel master and I have been trapped under mycomputer working for the man and have not had a lot of time to spare. But I hope to get out and hang with some of you this Saturday…

I will be heading out to Copley Square Saturday morning to do a little Knitting in public and I hope that you all will be joining me. I will be out from 10:00am until 1ish. I will also be distirbuting a little yarn crawl for those of you who want to run around afterward. Sadly, I cannot hang out afterward due to a previous enagement.

Based on the conversation on ravelry I am really excited about the number of new people I will meet this year. ok.. back to the paying gig..

ADDED
I put together a google map for you gals/guys who are looking for the event.
