GG goes to Trenton Knit n Stitch

Saturday I drove down to Trenton to meet up with Bonnye and her knit friends. Bonnye has been trying to get me there for quit some time and this weekend worked.

Initially I figured it was just a knit group and I would sit and knit, right? Well Bonnye and Najaf the founder of Trenton Knit n Stitch had other plans. Lol! When I saw the post on Facebook saying “we have a special guest, come meet GG!” I was all wait what?

My day started at Do Ewe Knit because Victoria was having a trunk show. I had to show my face. I’m so happy I stopped there because she has bulky yarn and she is gonna dye GG orange creamsickle on that base. 😍that’s a nice shirt she is wearing lol. Why are my eyes closed lol!

After I get a hug and drool a bit over the yarn, I jump in the car and head to Trenton. I have a bag with some of my items. Bonnye said bring samples πŸ‘€ again I was like huh? They were truly excited about meeting me and wanted to see some of my knitting.

Can I pause here to say I am still blown away when folks are excited about meeting me. I mean it’s just me. I appreciate the love though.

Trenton Knit n Stitch

The group that was started by Najah Masudi is 10 years old (I think) and meets in a cute local book store called Classic Used Books. The atmosphere in the store was perfect for a meet up with crafters. I love meeting folks that become fast friends. I pride myself on the fact that I don’t meet strangers.

The diversity of the group was the first thing I noticed and loved. Everyone was working on something and open to sharing what they were working on. The projects went from blankets to socks. I won’t mention that Najah started casting on and then….lol

Show n Tell

I did as instructed and shared some projects with them. I showed them my giant boneyard shawl by Westknits. They were happy to see my Amy Miller wraps; Spring Fever and 2nd Avenue.


We knit, we made new fiber friends and we chat. Najah interviewed me now that I think about it and the time flew by quickly. Before I knew it folks were packing up. I am so happy I went and I think they enjoyed my visit too.
I can’t end this post without saying thank you to Bonnye. Had a blast and I hope I met your expectations.

 

 

Knit on my fiber friends….knit on
