It was the fall of 2013. Some of you may not have even owned your business in the yarn industry yet, while others of you had been at it for well over 20 years. Some of you had not yet become parents; others were close to becoming empty nesters. A lot can change in five years, but of course, a lot can stay the same. Five years ago, Yarn Market News made a change. Because of dwindling advertising dollars, we announced that we would be publishing three issues a year instead of five. And this issue marks our first all-digital issue, born out of both a desire to go green and to help the magazine’s struggling bottom line.

    Vogue Knitting LIVE Launches in New York City in January

    NEW YORK, NEW YORK 6,000 Knitters and Industry “Knitterati” to Gather for New Event Vogue Knitting LIVE Launches in New York City in January. Popular Classes Already Sold Out More than 53 million people know how to knit or crochet—and the number is growing. Following the successful premier of Vogue Knitting LIVE in Los Angeles last year, Vogue Knitting magazine announces a new event at the Hilton New York January 14–16, 2012 . Knitting, an ages-old craft, is taking the world by storm. Professionals, Hollywood A-listers, and rock stars have all joined the ranks of knitters, and Ravelry, a popular social media site for stitchers, boasts close to 2 million members. Its benefits are renown: A Harvard study from 2007 concluded that knitting may be as effective as medication in reducing stress. “We know that knitters love getting together at yarn stores to learn new techniques, compare projects, and hear from top designers. We’ve simply taken that to the next level by creating the largest live gathering of knitters in New York,” says Trisha Malcolm, editor of Vogue Knitting and originator of Vogue Knitting LIVE. Vogue Knitting LIVE caters to knitters at all levels—from the knit-curious to experienced designers and crafters. In 2012, knitters can expect: • More than 75 how-to sessions, some of which are already sold out. Topics like “An Overture to Estonian Lace” and “Working with Antique and Vintage Knitting Patterns” bring 200-year old techniques to new generations. Other sessions such as “Happy Hat Knitting” and “Sock Innovation” focus on specific types of projects.

    What Is the Only Thing That Gets BAKG Members to Put Down Their Knitting Needles?

    What Is the Only Thing That Gets BAKG Members to Put Down Their Knitting Needles? Diane Levine On the afternoon of Saturday, September 23, 115 BAKG members spent a pleasant afternoon together, too busy with our forks to keep our needles going. We enjoyed the Italian fare—spaghetti with meatballs, chicken Piccatta, and eggplant parmigiana (among several other delectable dishes), served family style— at Tony’s Di Napoli in Times Square in the heart of New York City. For dessert, we had Italian favorites, cannoli and tiramisu. Seated at tables of 10 and 12 in our own private room, we chatted with old friends and made new ones. Our keynote speaker was the unrivaled Nicky Epstein, the author of more than 30 knitting books. Yes, “three, zero”! She shared with us, by means of pictures and sample pieces, the story of her evolution through knitting in a presentation titled “One Stitch at a Time: My Evolution as a Knitter.” Attendees had the opportunity to “strut their stuff” as they modeled dozens of Nicky’s creations. We learned about her sources of inspiration as well as tips and techniques for garment construction, pattern perfection, and elegant embellishments from simple to extraordinary. Nicky Epstein, keynote speaker Photo: © Creative Commons Beverly Katz modeling one of Nicky’s creations Nicky also served as the judge of a knitting contest. Our very talented members shared their own evolution with knitting in the categories of apparel, accessories, and household items. They presented a Show and Tell that ranged from their earlier creations to current projects. Time and practice really do make our knitting skills better.

The days are getting longer and I’m another year older and hopefully wiser. For me this month is like that moment when I get to the top of a hill, pause and look around, take a deep breath, exhale slowly and collect my thoughts to refocus. This naturally follows after a month like December. Thanks so much to all of you for making our first Holiday Season so busy and successful. It was like a warm whirlwind of that loving human energy and excitement that propels us through the colder darker and sometimes stressful days of the holidays. February 1st is our first Anniversary. Can you believe it? I feel so fortunate to be smack in the middle of this whole experience. Everyday is full of things to do (I’ve learned to be okay with the fact that I’ll never catch up), things to learn and friends to be with. I promise to stay on the lookout for smarter and more helpful products, better books, new and beautiful fiber products to offer and new class and workshop ideas. This past year has given me so many lessons about running a business and I can’t wait for the upcoming year’s education.
