Dear Traveling Knitter,

I hope you are as excited as I am about our upcoming Canada Knitting Tour. Besides being a beautiful country, Canada has a rich knitting history and is home to some of the industry's most talented designers and writers. Canadian knitters are extremely passionate about the craft, and we are sure to feel welcome in a land filled with textile museums, yarns shops and knitting mills.

We will have the opportunity to hobnob with luminaries such as frequent VK designer Gayle Bunn and author/designer Robin Melanson and enjoy a presentation by Fiona Ellis, author of "Inspired Cable Knits." Sally Melville will be the featured speaker during our visit to Canadian Museum of Civilization in Ottawa.

One of the highlights of the trip will be a visit to the studio of Maie and Taiu Landra, owners of Koigu Wool Designs. For those of you unfamiliar with their company, you are in for a sensational and colorful experience. We will see, up close, their unique dying process which creates some of the most coveted yarn found in yarn shops today.

And if that's not enough, Vogue Knitting, Westminster Fibers and SR Kertzer will put on a fashion show, showcasing the latest designs and trends.

Please join us on this inspiring trip to Toronto and Ottawa,. Though it's close to home, you will find yourself in a different world filled with wool, knitting and new friends.
