Book Release! Knitting Art by Karen Searle
Just got my UPS package today with the new book, "Knitting Art: 150 Innovative Works by 18 Contemporary Artists," by Karen Searle. My work is featured- the Armenian Alphabet, some from my I-Cord Series, and some from my Fine Art/Fiber Art Series. It is quite a nice book, and I am proud to be featured in such good company!
The other artists featured in the book are: Kathryn Alexander, Jeung-Hwa Park, Ilisha Helfman, Debbie New, Katharine Cobey, Donna L. Lish, Lindsay Obermeyer, Carolyn Halliday, Reina Mia Brill, Adrienne Sloan, Lisa Anne Auerbach, Anna Maltz, Mark Newport, Janet Norton, John Krynick, Barb Hunt, and Karen Searle.
On my first glance-through, I am quite taken with Barb Hunt, whose work is new to me and I am excited to see more, and John Krynick, whose work I became aware of earlier this year when he friended me on ravelry. (If you are a knitter, and do not yet know about ravelry, go there now. It will change your life!) There is so much in this book I would love to see in person, it's a tease that way.
In the studio news: I'm close to finishing a lower-case version of the Alphabet, and I'll post pics of some new words soon.

Check me out- in the photo they used I'm wearing my Skullyflower shirt! (From Dragon Messmer's Skullyflower comic books!)
