Jacket front
On Saturday I had the privelege of spending a few hours with Sheila. I've met her several times in the past at shows and guild meetings and have always admired the wonderful garments that she wears. She's a great believer in trying anything new and has expanded her knitting (and other) horizons by attending a number of the American Knitter's Conventions.
We'd agreed to meet for lunch at an Art Centre / Theatre and after lunch she took me to her local yarn store (yes I did buy more yarn and no you can't see it as it's a present!) then she asked if I'd like to go to her home and have a look at some of her work - what a treat!
I love being allowed to explore someone else's bookcase and their stash! I had a great afternoon and persuaded her to model some of her creations. Here she is wearing a great entrelac jacket - it's only when I looked closer that I realised it is in Tunisian Crochet!
I think I will have to do some serious practice!

Posted by: M at February 9, 2006 11:10 PMWhat a fabulous Jacket - and in Tunisian crochet too. Please tell Sheila that she looks fabulous in it and thank her for sharing. I had no idea tunisian crochet to be honest could be used like that. I shall have to investigate.
