I won't get to any posts about my workshops with Lucy Neatby today. I will say tht I got a lot from the classes and would take anything Lucy teaches, even the same classes over again.
In less than 30 minutes I need to leave to see Stephanie Pearl-McPhee talk, read from, and sign her new book. It started raining hard and is due to get very windy so the trip may take a longer than the usual 30 minutes. I hope the weather doesn't foul up Stephanie's schedule.
To tie these two topics together I have a photo of Lucy holding my sock-in-progress. This would not be confused for Lucy holding one of her own socks, since gray tweed is very far from Lucy's thing. It would clash with her outfit.
Lucy did seem a bit taken aback by the photo op. I guess knitting celebrities other than Stephanie don't often get this request.
Unfortunately, I don't think Lucy qualifies in Stephanie's current Doctors Without Borders fund raising campaign.
Oh, I dunno- she's a *knitting* celebrity! Extra points for coolness, but subtract some for being easy to convince (sock-friendly)!

Lucy looks much the same as when I took classes several years ago. She's so fab!!
