DoubleStitch at City Knits

Saturday, December 6th was City Knits 6th B-day. To celebrate they invited the DoubleStitch Twins to come and do a book signing and discuss their career. Erika and Monika were both enlightening. They began to crochet in the 4th grade, but actually stopped for 20yrs before picking the hook up again. They brought along some of their creations from the book, "DoubleStitch" to show to the audience.

Here is Erika demonstrating how to wear the cape and the different ways to tie it to create different lines. Monika is at the table wearing the poncho from the book.
Here again is Erika showing the back of the apron from the book. Monika and Star Christina are looking on.

And here is Erika pairing a cropped bolero with the apron to create a much different look. These girls are creative geniuses. I applaud them in their work and wish them continued success. It was fun to hear them discuss their love of all things fiber.
