Midweek update – 28 February
Show 15 is coming along, with a review of Ann Feitelson’s book on Fair Isle knitting, and my two favourite films of all time. The big news here at the moment, fresh on the heels of Sydney traffic problems caused by two ships and a Vice President, it seems like we’re all getting an extra public holiday this year when a President comes calling. I suppose that’s nice, it saves the protesters having to miss a day of work.
Pictures of the knitting from last Sunday’s workshop are being worked on, so expect them soonish. I didn’t get a chance to finish them today as it was Wednesday and it rained – which means the Indian Pacific (the train that runs from Sydney to Perth) broke down, apparently it can’t get up the mountains when it rains, so that meant almost an extra hour on the train – or some more of the pattern rounds of the baby jumper completed, but no time to do the pictures.
Until Saturday, keep knitting.
About Sticks & String and me
G’day all. I’m David Reidy, an Australian bloke who lives in the Blue Mountains two hours west of Sydney, and knits and podcasts about knitting. Away from the sticks and string, I’m an astrophysicist who now teaches high school. In my knitting and podcasting endeavours I am assisted by my two Burmese cats, Tikka and Tiger.
The Sticks and String podcast appears weekly, so look for a new show each weekend.
