The 10-Day sweater hits the Runway! I started this on Saturday, the 25th of November and VOILA! Ariann arrives at the Arcadia Knitting trunk show December 10th...

This was a very exciting moment for me - I traveled up to the NorthSide with a battery of garments and more to meet and mingle with old friends and new!

The lovely Dana models the alpaca Ariann - you can see that this yarn makes a very smooth, drapey fabric - more relaxed looking than the original green sample.

Along with the Trunk Show, we had a little demo swag time - here is my good friend and muse, Edie, helping me demonstrate how to measure for fit. Here's a break-down of what we did in an article you can save...

My huge THANKS!!! to all that were able to join us - and especially, to Rachel for taking all the great pictures!

And a huge round of applause to all who joined in the FUN and wore some Chic Knits to the party! Here's Robin, looking gorgeous in a watermelon color CeCe that was most lovely!

Assorted garments from the Chic Knits Portfolio will be at Arcadia Knitting until December 31, 2006.
