This is the time every year for the past decade, w This is the time every year for the past decade, when I wake up, unpack my bag from @vougeknitlive New York, and look at my pictures. This is my favorite show all year. It's my home town show, and the very first big national show that I ever did, eleven years ago. It is EXHAUSTING, and it always takes me one full day to recover (hence unpacking my bag on Tuesday!).⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Here's a few shots from the past 10 year. The first picture is my 10th anniversary meet up on the VK Live special events stage. It was such a treat to be able to meet some of the knitters who have been with me in classes, taken video classes and been part of one of my KALs. The second picture was taken by a student in my very first VK Live and the next picture was taken at my 10th!. Then there's the fun of the amazing marketplace, the fiber art, and running into friends everywhere you turn.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And finally, there's my favorite tradition, my Sunday night dinner at Joe Allans with my pals. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
See you all next year!⁠⠀

As a child in school, we listened to the "I Have a As a child in school, we listened to the "I Have a Dream" speech every year. We were fed the image of MLK as a safe, kind, peaceful (read palatable to white people) man. A simple portrait of an incredibly brilliant and complex man. I was in my 20s before I first heard "The Other America", as true, tragically, today as it was then.⁠
⁠
If you want to honor the complexity of the legacy he left us, please click on the link in my profile and the picture to watch this speech. To me, this is the speech that school children should listen to every year. Every year, until we no longer need to hear it.⁠

"I will be forever grateful to pattyjlyons for giving me the knowledge AND the confidence to fix cable mistakes. Yes, I find it stressful. And yes, I know I can do it. Ten stitches over ten rows, one stitch at a time."⁠⠀
