\"London<\/a><\/p>\n

Lies <\/a>and I were in London. We joined the I Knit Weekender and had lots of fun. We knitted, and we talked and we bought some nice yarns – I added some beautiful greens and teals\/turquoises to my stash. I really enjoyed London. We stayed in Hotel Ashley<\/a>, which was not quite what it said, but nice enough and, more important, it was near the tube and buses <\/a>to bring us everywhere we wanted. It was a pity Circle Line and District Line were both closed for the weekend but that made us ingeniously. I met Ysolda <\/a>and loved to give her a little present. I even was a model for Nancy Marchant’s<\/a> beautiful designs in brioche stitch (in december her book will come out!) and hit the catwalk. Funny thing: this way I discovered that barets look good on me – so I know what to knit next.<\/p>\n

\"London<\/a><\/p>\n

I finished my ‘Chocolate on the rock socks’ and clue 2 on the Nancy Bush Mystery Sock (of which I made a very obscure photo<\/a>). I made my targets. We went to Tate Modern, and I saw Material Gestures<\/a> and Poetry and Dream. <\/a>We spent quite some time in Waterstone’s<\/a>: we ate on the fifth floor with a beautiful view over London: 5th View<\/a>. Best food of the weekend, and yet not expensive. With one of the shop assistants I had a ‘punny’ search for Neil Gaiman’s <\/a>Neverwhere. An appropriate read for the flight back. And now: to work fastly!!!<\/p>\n
