moving to wordpress

Hi everyone - just a quick note to let you know I have moved over to wordpress and am continuing my blog over there.  I just unveiled my knit wire line 'breathless' during my first wholesale trade show at The Buyers Market of American Craft - what a wonderful show filled with amazing artists - I was so excited to be a part of it and experience a trade show first hand!

Now that the show is over, I am working on a new design for my site/blog with the help of a wonderful designer (you'll meet her soon!) and hope to have the unveiling in the next month.  Feel free to pop on over now and follow me at my new home - oblinaknit - I would love to know what you think of the change.

I currently have one of the wordpress freebie themes and am working with a designer to create my own blog theme with additional pages for wholesale, etc...hopefully by the end of September it will be complete - yay!

Any Plans For Saturday??????

The Reston Market is the place to be this Saturday June 12th for some great music, local produce and shopping at the crafters' market - see you there!

oblinaknit hits the road for Independence Day!

It's official - oblinaknit will be a vendor at Bazaar Bizarre in conjunction with the Larchmere Festival on Saturday July 3rd in the Cleveland Ohio so get your summer plans in gear and prepare to accessorize!

This is my second time doing a Bazaar Bizarre show in Cleveland and I am oh-so excited yet again - I had a blast when I was there this past winter and cannot wait to see more of the city this time - don't tell my work, but I plan to make a LOOONG weekend of it....after all, this may be my only chance at a vacation this summer!.  So..... if anyone has suggestions on where to go and what to see...let me know!

See you in the Cleve!

The Reston Market Begins!

oblinaknit will be at her regular spot beginning May 8th at the Reston Market - stop by for local produce and plants as well as a great crafter's market.

I am excited for market season to start and see everyone again -lake Anne has such a wonderful community and the shops and restaurants make for a fun day out - see you there!

PS - don't worry about the clown, he is quite harmless!

First Show of the Season - Road trip to Philly!

I will be participating in a fantastic market in Philadelphia on April 17th - The Philadelphia Designer's Market - I am excited to get out of town for a mini-trip after this weather we have had in the DC area.  A ton of new fabrics have arrived from my suppliers so expect to see some new totes and other accessories for spring - See you there!
