Back from Knitting Cruise and name dropping--Linda
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: Knitting

Hi all--I'm back from the knitting cruise dh and I took to Norway, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Russia, Finland, Sweden. Now if that isn't enough name dropping--guess who were the teachers and leaders--Nancy Bush, Beth Brown Reisel, and Lily Chin.  Myrna Stahlman, author of one of my favorite lace knitting books, was also on board as a participant although she will teach on a cruise to Iceland and the Faroe Islands next year. 

Nancy and Beth taught classes and Lily who teaches on other Craft Cruises was a leader too.  I'll have lots of details about the classes I took and all the fantastic knitting I saw and purchased along the way.  I would have blogged from the ship but I was way too cheap and way too jealous of my moments in the Baltic Sea area.  I did keep a journal and will include the highlights of the trip.

 We're pretty tired out as it took about 24 hours to get back from when we left the ship until we flew into Billings.  I could have stayed on board the ship for a few more days, but also glad to see my home in Montana.  We missed 2 extra hot weeks here and had 2 extra warm weather in the normally rainy Baltic Sea area.  How good is that.   Linda
