and for once I’m not talking about our Vancouver weather. I just found out that I am going to be in an article about Circle Craft for the Georgia Straight. I just got off the phone and finished up the interview. And to top it off, the woman who interviewed me crochets. Yeah….
It’s not just all about the knitting anymore folks..Time to round out those skills and bring crochet into the forefront where it deserves to be. Kim Werker has done more for crochet cool than anyone out there at the moment. There was even talk of a crochet Stitch n Bitch. I would love that.
I hate myself in photographs, but it’s part of getting the work out there, and why am I doing this if not to get folks jonesing for the accessories. This is the photograph being used in the online Circle Craft Brochure.
Oh, and this one as well…
I’m not sure which photo they are using for the Georgia Straight. Just as long as I’m not in it, things will be fine. It’s just coming up to 5 years in Vancouver and finally the work is getting noticed….It feels good and I’m feeling pretty grateful.
Well with all the surprise new press, I best get my butt in gear as far as the inventory goes…And I was having so much fun spinning this morning.
Yay! Go you!! Those hats are so adorable and I love the baby stuff.
Carmen, for what it’s worth, for an oval face shape, what might work well is soft light and a 3/4 or side-on view.
Also, you are already published on your site, and presumably elsewhere online. In other words, we the people are the new mainstream media. TV and The Georgia Straight is dated.
Long live (communications) democracy.

SO exciting! 5 years is a long time to stick it out. Well deserved!
Good for you Carmen! You deserve it.
My first love is crochet, and bringing more attention to the craft is a wonderful thing!
Woohoo! Some well deserved publicity. I say it’s about time!
Congratulations — and well deserved! I’ll look forward to reading the Straight. 🙂
