YARN EVENT - COMMUNITY KNIT & CROCHET - Denver, CO

THEY CAME, THEY KNITTED, CROCHETED, SHARED, LAUGHED, TAUGHT, NETWORKED, LISTENED, LEARNED AND MOST OF ALL, HEARTS WERE CONNECTED! Yarn crosses ALL barriers; cultural, racial, economical and age. It is a bond that no one can break. A timeless life long skill that should be passed on from generation to generation.

A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THE 1ST ANNUAL SPRING YARN CRAFT EVENT A MAJOR SUCCESS! To the wonderful volunteers, outstanding exhibitors, and fabulous guests; Thank you so very much, and see you next year for the 2nd Annual Yarn Knit & Crochet Event! CAB

  2. How wonderful to see this!
    I live in Seattle and have not seen a single other blackwomon knitter here. Not one. Thought I was all alone!

    I'm a blackwomon knitter; began in November 2008 and have already put in around 600 hours, plus the yarn-buying expeditions, online research, etc.
    I just love knitting!
    I think I might be the only woman in my family who knits - we have many talented crochet artists. My maternal grandmother made a BEDSPREAD from the thin white crochet thread 'back in the day.' Humbling and amazing.
    Keep up the good work, sister knitter! I knew there had to be other blackwomon knitters out there ;-0)

    Do you know the picture of Sojourner Truth knitting? GOOGLE Images will take you to a bunch of them online.
