HAYWARD opening and symposium
OK, I've been blethering on to so many people about London, but haven't shown any pics. So here goes.
Opening night at the Hayward - about a million degrees centigrade:
Inga, Ildiko and Helle.
Three foreign-sounding women each with a coral fixation.
It even grows out of them......
Schmoozing with the wonderful Gerard of I Knit London.
Hang on, there are four of us now. The new addition is the very talented Anita. I covet her wire plankton forms over any other's work.
The symposium on the 13th, The Art And Craft of Saving The World, held in the Queen Elizabeth Hall, also on the Southbank, saw me teaching people to crochet with fishing rope;
encouraging uber-boffins and crafters to share their knowledge and tackle crochet;
and making a giant jellyfish from rubbish, fishing debris and manufacturing waste.
Phew!
No wonder I'm pooped!
ooh there I am in the reddy pinky top - fame at last!
