News from California Isabel ....

An email from Isabel:

My cousin, a fellow knitter, sent the following website to me, please share it with the knitters in Fibres and Fabrics, it is truly amazing. http://bencuevas.wordpress.com/2010/10/21/transcending-the-material/
Our work week at Lizard was wonderful, exhausting, boring (marine biology is not all romantic I can assure you) and inspiring. I am anxious to get home to California to follow up on some ideas that I have.
But not too soon as we are now in Tasmania for a week. Our first day, yesterday, was fabulous beyond belief. We drove down the Tasman peninsula with lots of birdwatching stops (saw 32 new species) under grey skies (perfect for twitching), spent 6 hours at Port Arthur (very sobering experience), got three more new birds on the drive back and ended the day with a lovely dinner in the port area. The Salamanca market is on the agenda for this morning followed by the miniature railway museum (I'm goofy about miniature trains) and a walk on Mt Wellington. Life is good.
All the best, Isabel

PS Have a look at the website. You won't believe that it's knitting!
