Here are some favourite memories from the meeting....
~
The lovely hotel:
Crocheting in the sun while making new friends:
The Marketplace (cue heavenly choir):
Yumiko Alexander's elegant booth:
Beautiful yarn and breathtaking roving:
Enticing samples and amusing pottery:
Wonderful food:
Interesting people:
A tiny ball of new yarn on my lap:
And a kindred spirit for a roommate:
Not pictured: the learning, the laughter, the fun, the late-night crochet sessions, the tea at 2 am, the airplanes flying past our hotel window at the rate of about one every minute, and the fantastic crochet fashion show. Wish you could all have been there!
Tomorrow I'll post some photos of the design competition.
