Donna Druchunas's Blog

Well, with Hawaii and jet lag, I let my blog tour get off track. What WAS I thinking, trying to do anything besides lying on the beach while I was in Hawaii? But now I've been home for a few days, and it's time to get caught up. So here's where we've been so far, and where we are going next.

Where We've Been So Far

Drew Emborsky, The Crochet Dude, wrote about my Alaska Cruise and Arctic Lace

L'Tanya Durante at Craftnicity wrote about the lovely flower-motif pullover she designed for Successful Lace Knitting

Connie Chang interviewed me about recording an audio book and what it will be like to teach on a cruise

Cheryl Potter wrote about working lace in unusual yarns and in hand-painted colorways

Renee Leverington at Goddess Knits shared some background information about the beaded lace stole she designed for Sucessful Lace Knitting

Knitting Out Loud announced the Arctic Lace audio book that will be released on the cruise in May (you can also follow them on Facebook)

Ok, that's where we got off track, mostly because I was in the water swimming and not keeping up with the tour. So, what's next?

What's Next
Joanne Conklin at Rhythm of the Needles will have a guest post from me, as soon as I get it sent over to her! Joanne is also planning a cruise with Craft Cruises, so she'll no-doubt be talking about what it's like to plan and implement such a fantastic knitting event

Kristi Schueler will write about the drop-dead gorgeous socks she designed for Successful Lace Knitting

Janet Riehl will have another guest post from me where I'll talk about the intersection of culture and craft
