Scattered Monday

I'm having a scattered Monday.  Some days it doesn't matter if I get an early start.  It just means my plans unravel by 10:00 instead of noon.

Here's a quick schedule update on the Fiberworld 2020 booth.  I'll be live in the booth for the following time slots.  I'll probably check in at other times, but these slots are guaranteed.

Wednesday, August 19: 1:00 - 3:00, Undertone

Thursday, August 20: 4:00 - 6:00, Namibia

Friday, August 21: 3:00 - 5:00, Navelli

Saturday, August 22: 10:00 - 1:00, The Early Blossoms

Sunday, August 23: 1:00 - 3:00, Love Note

I've listed a sample with each time slot.  I'll be talking generally about these patterns - color selection, construction, helpful tips. Conversation isn't limited to these patterns, and I encourage people to ask questions. Pattern selection, color consultation, techniques . . . I'm flexible with these sessions.

And now I have to get back to work.

I managed a quick photo shoot this morning while the lighting was still good, and now I need to process all the pictures.

Going Virtual

The pandemic is going to be with us for a while and that means large gatherings aren't possible.  In an effort to stay viable, the fiber community is shifting gears to online events.  

Next week I'll be vending at Fiberworld 2020.  This is my first organized virtual fiber event.

I've been working out the logistics of a virtual booth and upping my tech game.  There are more virtual events planned for the fall, and this is a good opportunity to figure out what works and what doesn't.

If you'd like a glimpse of a virtual booth in action, take a look at this.

Fiberworld 2020 runs for five days.  It includes classes and a marketplace.  See event website for details.

I'm still working out a few kinks, but I'll be live in my "booth" every day of the event.  Specific hours will be posted, and I'll give another update next week.

As knitters we love to touch and feel and see up close.  Virtual events can't compare to in-person events, but every day I'm thankful for the technology that's available with just a few clicks.  This pandemic would be even more challenging without it.

This week's color inspiration . . . 

Peachy goodness.
