And they said it couldn't be done.

I LOVE Megan

This post is going to be a regular feature, my great, amazing, talented friends.

We will start our tour with my buddy Megan. LOVE YA MEGAN. I first met Megan a couple years ago when the lovely lass opened a cute little shop in Kensington Market one of my fave places in T.O.

Sooo I found out about this shop in the market at spinning class a couple of years ago, and went to check it out. It was so cute. Got home, phoned Steph, "Hey girlfriend, got to check out the new yarn shop!" The one thing was is I have more yarn in my stash than this gal had in her whole shop. "Gee I hope she can make a go of it", I thought. Well get out of town, the lass is doing great. The best SnB in town, mountains of gob smacking yarn, and every every gal that works there is MY NEW BEST FRIEND.

I love Megan, her soft spoken ways(but hey, no pushover), cute kids, nice Hubby. Also the feeling is mutual, Megan tells me when she first saw me in the shop ,she thought "hummm here come the real knitters". Me and Megan are always gifting each other with lovely hand knits.So I guess we are each others fan club: LUV YA MEGAN. Your buddy for life Denny. xoxoxo

Denny + Megan = BFF

We had no fun .

I god a code in my node. But my hands aren't sneezy , just knitting.

P.S. hey Steph we had no fun the other night, well Ken winning the "party girl" scarf was funny. But if you had been there you would of cracked us all up with some witty comment. As it was, well it was just the cider\beer making us laugh. Fiber retreat, I'm so jealous. As to bloging ,we will be back soon with Vim Gel Bleach fun, my favrite people, and up dates on olympic knitting.

Need to go rest now ,yes Amy I drink some soupies.mmmmmmmm soup.

My Hairy Brown Skirt (no really it's lovely!)

I guess I just want to say I taught a needle felting class. Love the needle felting! Turn sticks and stuff into cool crap. Voila:

So I finished my knit skirt, it's made frome Fleece Artist Mo and Colinette Giotto. One strand of each held together. The pattern is frome the Vouge Holiday issue but I didn't follow the pattern, just used the decreasing sequence they did to get that cool A-line skirt look. Also here is a little hat I made using the Ann Budd book The knitter's handy book of patterns. It is the Zara Plus.Yummmmmmy Zara Plus. So the story of the skirt is this. Lorena (my boss) did a blanket out of the mohair(she used Angel Hair) and the Giotto this summer.



.Oh.My.God.

It was so gorgeous all I could think about was: MUST KNIT FUNKY SKIRT. I kept talking about it blah blah blah mo and giotto, blah blah gorgeous. You should knit this blah blah blah mo and giotto. One day at stitch n bitch Meagan said (in her lovely soft way): "Denny you keep talking about it". Well isn't that all I needed to give it a go. Yup this puppy is done now.


I will try to remember to wear it to stitch n bitch this Wed. because my scarf class is over (I teach a lot, somtimes it means I miss stitch n bitch). But not this week and then there is Friday.....(hum the theme song to Rocky here)....on your mark .....
get set.......go, I mean cast on! I'm so stoaked about this olympic knit thang.
Vogue coat you will be mine, and if I reach my personal best (finish) I will buy the fancy silk bag at Yoka.....
