Who is that Masked man?

Ok.. he isn’t wearing a mask.

It’s Joe Raffino of South West Trading Company.

He was the special guest at the Yarnia knit in public event! Apparently Joe has been regularly kicked out of the house for weeks at a time to travel around the country with a suitcase of women’s knitted garments, and yarn samples! These are not your ordinary yarn samples.. no sir.. they are yarns made of soy and corn and crab shells and such! And they are all very nice. 

What a life..

The knit out was fun, and while I was there I grabbed a blocking wire set. With all the shawls I have been working on lately it will be a great tool to have.
