Boise Lace Knitting Retreat

One of the great pleasures of the Boise Lace Knitting Retreat is seeing lovely work from so many talented knitters. This year was no different. Learning from the work of others is as important as the learning that takes place in the official classes. Below are only a few of the many stunning pieces.









Plenty of hand-dyed yarn was for sale, providing no end of temptation.


A group of Idaho artists also was meeting at the facility during our retreat. One was a talented beader, whose work earned many ooohs and aaaahs. She might even have persuaded a few knitters to add beading to their repertoires.

Oh it looks like it must have been great, and those are beautiful pieces.

Someday maybe I'll be able to go. In the meantime, it's fun to go vicariously through your adventures.
