I was able to take in the Lion Brand Runway Show in Anaheim.  It is quite interesting to take in shows for which the textile is created and not already man made.  The interpretations of the last 3 garments were from fashion students.  It was an excellent example of the amazing garments which knitters can morph with mere yarn.  I enjoyed seeing their interpretations and skills put to the test.  I must say, they did quite well. 

The show was announcing new yarns for this year, and celebrating old favorites.  Vanna White was in attendance showcasing her new glamour variety.  I particularly liked Vanna’s selection of yarns because of their clean, bright, and polished look.  The finished garments had a professional high quality appearance compared to several other types of yarns featured.  Each to their own though, it often depends on what your designer’s eye is aiming to achieve, or what lends well to represent the garment design you’re trying to achieve.
