I got home from @hhamericas Saturday, so this is a very delayed photo dump (hurt back and a killer cold has me down for the count.)⁠ ⁠ Although I love going to our trade show to see what's new and coming up in the Industry, what I love most is getting to see my friends and connect with others in the biz.⁠ ⁠ I loved meeting all the shop owners who came to my class, my one-on-one sessions, and my book signing. Next year, we'll have actual copies of Knitting ER (not just the mock-up.)⁠ ⁠ If you met me at the show, drop me a comment and let me know. We are working on the LYS special offers for the new book, and they will be good!!⁠ ⁠ Thanks to all who took the time to come say hi. See you next year.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #knittersofinstagram #knitting #knit #pattylyons #pattylyonsknitting

Home for 3 days and back off!! I'm heading out tomorrow for our annual trade show @@hhamericas . It will be a jam-packed 5 days!⁠ ⁠ I'll be doing a book signing and meet-and-greet, teaching classes, and hosting private sessions.⁠ ⁠ Then there's walking the sales floor to see what's new and what's coming next season. ⁠ ⁠ I'll be doing Instagram lives (when I think of it) from the sales floor and fashion show.⁠ ⁠ Do you have anything special you want to know about? Let me know what questions you have, and I'll do my best to report back.⁠ ⁠ If you are a shop owner coming to the show, hope to see you on Wed at book 1317 for the meet and greet. I'll be telling you all about the new book!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #knittersofinstagram #knitting #hhnorthamerica #pattylyons #pattylyonsknitting

I’m going to write a proper follow-up blog after I get home from the next trip (a shocking 4 days after @affiknityretreat ), but I wanted to share a few glimpses at our amazing weekend.⁠ ⁠ Thank to you all the attendees and to our amazing teachers: @ergoiknit , @knitspot , @labienaimee , and @farwellclay . ⁠ ⁠ The marketplace was POPPING with our amazing vendors: @barenakedwools , @brooklyngeneralstore @ceces_wool , @cleancashmere , @indigolanejewelry , @pip_daddy_pottery @yarnandwhiskey and our own LYS - @sybilsyarnshop ⁠ ⁠ More to come, but for now, sit back and enjoy a 90-second trip to @affiknityretreat .⁠ ⁠ See you all next year.⁠ ⁠ xxoo⁠ ⁠ P⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #affiKNITYretreat #knittersofinstagram #knitting #pattylyonsknitting ⁠
