Lots of Excitement!

Hello Friends!

As we finish out the 2019 retreat season in Quechee VT, we will celebrate with Lisa Evans as she leads her last retreat as the head of Knitting and Yoga Adventures. I am so thankful that Lisa will be around to help me take K&YA into next year and, have no fear, you will see her again at Knit Maine!

As we continue our transition, I am thrilled to announce that Cape Ann 2020 in Rockport MA will be open for Registration, early Dec 2019  ( a departure from our usual Jan 1 date).  We will be taking over 2 buildings at the Yankee Clipper Inn and have exclusive use of the property. It is a beautiful setting and if it were any closer to the water we would need a

boat! Yoga will take place in the  mornings overlooking the ocean. If we get lucky with weather, we may even be able to take our practice outside. Bliss. Feel free to inquire directly with Mike at the Yankee Clipper Inn about rooms and to make reservations.

I am thrilled, elated, over the moon to announce our Cape Ann instructor--Denise Bayron of Bayron Handmade! Denise has many talents and will be sharing techniques from her most popular knitting patterns in our class time. Give Bayron Handmade a look to learn more about Denise and her passions.

Denise's many accomplishments include pattern mentions in the New Yorker and her Grace Pullover was published in the April issue of Laine Magazine. Her CardiZen was nominated in the Mason Dixon Knitting Bracket, Cardigan category. She also has a pattern, Indoorsy Tunic, featured in the upcoming issue of Making Magazine, #8 Forest. She is currently teaching at Vogue Knitting Live in Austin and New York.  You can also find her on Instagram @BayronHandmade.

She and I have gotten to know each other over the last few weeks--she is lovely and wonderful and I am so happy she is joining us! There will be something for everyone in Denise's lessons. She believes making your own clothing is an empowering practice, one in which you can make affordable, durable garments. Denise's design aesthetic lives at the intersection of innovative making and sustainable fashion. It is her hope that her patterns enable you to create garments that make you feel confident and are comfortable to wear. I think we can all get on board with that!

I will be sending out an email to our newsletter subscriber list as Registration time draws near. I hope to see you in Cape Ann. Please visit Knitting and Yoga Adventures for more details on Cape Ann, Knit Maine and Quechee VT 2020.
