STITCHES Midwest leads to a KAL

Feed Your Creativity was in full force at STITCHES Midwest with pattern signings, demos, and garments on stage at the fashion show.

Kathy Zimmerman kicked off the weekend by demoing Line Em Up cables

and signing patterns for her fans.

Kollage wowed knitters with 17 garments in the fashion show. Here's a few that stole the stage...

Saturday the booth was packed with knitters (yes, that's Franklin with Susie) wanting to see the colors of Sock-a-licious

and have their copy of Bellingrath signed by IrishgirlieKnits.

After the Student Banquet, somebunnyslove held a pajama party for tons of knitters

and Susie of Kollage, along with Benjamin of XRX, judged the slipper contest.

Sandi Rosner closed the show by demoing her Syncopated Stripes socks and signing patterns. IrishgirlieKnits was the first person in line to have her Four Seasons Wrap autographed by Sandi.

She LOVED seeing it on the runway and ran to buy the pattern off the show floor. And...so did everyone else! It was the hottest pattern at STITCHES. So I thought, "why not do a knit-a-long?"
