Lots of Pursonalities
Last night at Westport's Knitting Central was Purse Night and knitters came out in droves to see some amazing creations by local designers. Regina Moss[above, on right] brought out a number of her delicious felted bags and Jane Ellliot [below - on left] had a few of her stunning evening clutches to
share.
Of course, there were also lots of those Noni patterns and samples on display - and everybody loves, loves, loves a Noni. Now, here's an interesting tidbit: Nora Bellows, the creator of Noni, was working at Woolworks in Baltimore (to support her yarn habit) while teaching at the University of Maryland and earning a Masters degree. It was there that customers first spotted her bags! Now, here's the weird part: Guess who's the latest retailer of GKT Kits? That's right, Woolworks. Spooky, huh? Ha!





Great minds think alike. I also used this pun in a title recently! Thanks for the link to Noni Her bags are amazing.

That looks like fun. I like Noni bags too, but have the "too much I want to knit, and so little time to knit them" problem.

I remember reading about this and am kicking myself for not going. I would have loved it and then perhaps had a chance to meet you my "neighbor".
