Handerbeit + Hobby Show in Cologne, Germany
Trammel & I just finished up another tradeshow, called Handerbeit + Hobby, in Germany. As usual, it was a fantastic time. We caught up with the stores we sell to internationally and spent time with our US yarn friends at Artyarns, Koigu, Habu & Be Sweet.
Most excitingly, we teamed up with a new distributor who will make ordering our yarns much easier throughout Europe. If you are interested in ordering our yarns (wholesale only!) please email our new distributor at info@lyy.de or visit their site www.lyy.de They also speak German, added bonus! Any questions, feel free to contact me as well at amy@knitcollage.com
Below are some photo highlights from the show, our booth, European friends and other inspiring knitted things we spotted at the show!
Yup, there was an amazing knitted tee pee in rainbow colors. NEED. Photo from Be Sweet.

Spotted at the show- words of wisdom!
Our tiny booth! We shared this with Artyarns.
My Pixie Dust table. Looked scrumptious.
Barbara, our new European distributor and I! She was a huge help with all of the German speaking customers.
Wilbert & I. Wilbert owns a fabulous shop in Holland called Schouten Handwerken. He has made many pretty things with our yarns.
This shawl with a Pixie Dust border was a show stopper! If you're interested in seeing more pics of this project, visit the Ravelry page here. Sadly, the pattern is only available in German.
