Wowza..

I've been published...well, sorta.

A few months ago, Cristi called and asked if I could do her a favor.  She said that she needed some pictures taken.  That's not a big deal, as I have been her finished object photographer several times. 

She told me that she had been sent a scarf that's pattern was going to be published.  Rain or snow had been coming down like crazy in the area where the pattern's knitter/author lived, so a good picture had not been taken yet.  The scarf was mailed to Cristi, we took pics and I did not think anything else about it.

Earlier today, Cristi sent me an email with a link.  The pattern was published in Knotions Magazine and one of my pictures was used.  Plus, my name got mentioned twice. 

Very cool.

Seriously, go check out the pattern here.  Deb Barnhill did a beautiful job with the design and it knits up beautifully. 

The original was done in pink, but I can see it looking wonderful in all colors.  I think it would look spiffy in a really deep blue.

I had heard of the magazine, but had never really looked at it.  It's fun and is just like Knitty, but has a different feel to it.  I am going to sit down and really look through the back issues to see what goodies can be mined from them.  There are some cute sock patterns in this issue, too.

Anywho.. that little shout out just made my day. 

Stay tuned...

Hey JP, I've had so much going on that I haven't even had a chance to thank you for those terrific photographs. I know that with the online magazines, quality of photos often makes the difference between publication and rejection. I can't thank you enough for contributing to OUR success.

Cheers from Nova Scotia,
