People Can Be So Wonderful

August19

Hi Heather,
I picked the winners–well, the random number generator did–for the Egg-stra sock kits on The Evolving Sock Knitter. I’m happy that so many commented for a chance to win. But more important, I was really touched by the well wishes for my sister-in-law, who has ovarian cancer. I hope the sock kits raise lots of money to fit this disease.

I FINALLY got my issue of Interweave Knits today. Personally, I think your project should have gotten a bigger picture, but I may be prejudiced. Anyway, congratulations again. I’m sure it’s just the first in a slew of published patterns for you.

Heather and Sarah welcome you to Crafty Detour. What is Crafty Detour?

It’s kind of like a podcast, but without audio. A place where Sairy Knits and Digitalnabi come together to provide a two part perspective where other blogs usually only provide one. It’s truly a detour from our usual blogging which we will continue to do on our own sites. CraftyDetour is a joint venture that will enable collaborative projects in the future.

Heather is the creative director for The Alpaca Yarn Company. She also designs knitwear, teaches, and blogs here: digitalnabi.com. She’s web programmer by day, a designer by night and a knitter always.

Sarah is a researcher/analyst for a stock indexing company – a job that keeps her on her toes! She has been knitting since starting graduate school for Applied Statistics in 2005. Sarah knits, spins, and dyes yarn and roving for her etsy shop: Stitches ‘n Rows. Her personal blog is Sairy Knits where she tries to blog about finished objects, test knitting, her fat cat Haley, food, and whatever else is on her mind when she can remember.
