The first sight of Chicago through the plane window made the city look like it was painted by Monet (very appropriate considering The Art Institute’s famous impressionist collection)
I always fall down on the job taking photos in Chicago. It is arguably one of the world’s most photogenic cities, with the lakefront and amazing architecture, every glance of downtown offers you a spectacular view . . . and then, there’s the lobby of the Palmer House!
Welcome to Vogue Knitting Live Chicago!
To say this venue is a special place, doesn’t quite cut it. I’ve taught in hotels and conference centers all over the country, but none of them welcomes you with this. Vogue Knitting Live Chicago at The Palmer House is truly magic!
My first night there I taught “All About Stripes” to an amazing group and it really started my show off right
Things just kept getting better as I headed to the market Friday night after another wonderful day of teaching. As I got close to the entrance I saw one of my designs had made it onto the Vogue Knitting mannequin!! SQUEEEEE!!!!!
I headed into the market to ooh and ah at the fiber art:
After seven classes I was both exhilarated AND exhausted all at the same time. My amazing students give me so much, and I even got a wonderful bracelet from a student from Istanbul,
and this card from another . . . it sums up how I feel about my students, the other teachers, and the entire staff of Vogue Knitting Live
If you missed it . . . don’t worry, you can still join us in New York in January. Believe me, it’s worth it. See you all in Jan!
