Welcome to the Fiber Frenzy
Wednesday, September 13th, 2006Hello and Welcome to the maiden voyage of the Fall Fiber Fest. This year we are going to take in the wonderful foliage and scenery of the US and Canada’s East Coasts on board a NINE night cruise of Royal Caribbean’s Grandeur of the Seas. This cruise is roundtrip from Baltimore, MD. is a five night cruise on board the Carnival Victory and is roundtrip from New York City.
Since beginning to work with Mama E of C*EYE*BER Fibers for the Spring SeaSocks Cruise, Erin and I are becoming delightful friends. Let me tell you, this woman is amazing! In addition to making, what I keep calling “edible yarns” (so yummy looking I want to eat them); she is an accomplished knitter, spinner, and wife and mother. I sort of have a little crush on her, which is a good thing, because I think she likes me too.
What I’m trying to do with this blog is really about four fold, so feel free to jump in and help out.
- I want a place where we can make announcements and keep the information flowing. There are so many of you who are coming that I want to make sure that everyone has great information.
- I want to put a human face and voice to this event. This is not a corporate powerhouse here. We are professional folks, but we are knitters and have the knitter’s best interest at heart. While I freely admit I don’t spin (yet — see Amie, I said yet), I do have a love of fiber.
- I want to have YOU the people joining Mama E and me on this cruise to join us, ask questions, post your excitement.
- I want to hear from you what you are looking for out of this cruise. I want to try to meet as many needs as humanly possible and I know everyone will have an outstanding time. However, this is YOUR cruise and I want you to help us make it the best afloat.
Finally, if you want to post here, just shoot me an e-mail here. If you want to register for the cruise, please go to this site and sign up.
