Photo Recap: Rhode Island School of Design Workshops

My students from the Step It Up Knits II: Finishing Techniques workshop.

Last month I had the pleasure of teaching a couple of workshops through the continued education program at the prestigious, Rhode Island School of Design. I spend most of my teaching time in a virtual classroom, so getting to interact personally with passionate knitters was an absolute treat!  Thanks to all of the students, RISD CE staff, and Rhonda Fargnoli for inviting me to their beautiful campus!

Here are just a few shots from the classes, and my subsequent New England jaunt with my husband and youngest child.

Enjoy!

Glue guns and duct tape? Now this is my idea of a college school supplies store!

Providence thrift store score!
We made the pilgrimage to Salem, MA–a long time wish of mine.
Unfortunately, the yarn stores were closed the day we were there — so no, “Stitch & Witch” for me. Alas.
