I got Little Birds back from Twist Collective last week. Generally I design things that I want to wear, but that was especially true in the case of this cardigan and luckily I got to make it in my size. So it might have been almost a year since I handed off an unblocked mess to Kate Gilbert in Montreal, but I can finally wear it. Only it’s mostly been far too warm.
This photo was taken last Friday when I walked across the Brooklyn bridge with Hannah – the cardigan spent most of the day in my bag, and photos had to be taken quickly. We had a picnic in the park behind me before walking back across the bridge to Manhattan where I met up with the Spiders.
Melissa tried on Little Birds and I met a pretty Ishbel.
The following evening, my last in NYC, I did a q+a at The Point. It was a lovely event and people asked some really interesting questions, but unfortunately I totally forgot to take a single picture. I was so saddened to learn that this store, who made me feel so at home during my visit, is closing suddenly – today is their last day. I wish all of the staff the best of luck in whatever they go on to do, thank you for being so wonderful!

So glad I got to see you again before you left NYC and as an extra bonus, get to try on little birds! I bought some needles for it at The Point yesterday (sad!) and can’t wait to cast on – after deadline knitting of course. Hope to cast on and finish by fall :)
So, did you get some new Fluevogs?
Your cardigan is adorable. :)
The Q&A was so much fun on Saturday night! You were lovely, adorable and very informative. It was great to learn so much about you and I’m looking forward to your return to our city. Hope the rest of your trip here is as wonderful.
It has been almost a year!
Did you see my finished Coraline yet? I’ve been wearing it a lot.
Thank you for your good wishes . . . We loved having you at the Point, and your Q & A definitely helped us end on a high note. Hope you’ll be back in NYC again someday soon.
Also I may have a few pictures for you of the event, I’ll let you know soon.
