Dear Knitters,
A big “Thank You” to all who have contacted me this year, whether to order a book, a kit or send me pictures of your finished Sasha Kagan Sweaters. It was great to meet up with so many enthusiasts at the shows and get your positive feedback. I have updated the details of the Exhibitions, Holidays, Festivals and Workshops for 2010 so that you can forward plan for next year. Go to my Workshops page
My best news is that I have secured a European ‘Chance to Create’ grant, which I will use to put together a retrospective touring exhibition spanning 40 years of textile designs, from the late 1960’s to the present day. I am very excited about this project and hope to bring out a new book with 20 of the most popular designs from the show including new designs yet to be created! The first venue for the exhibition is already booked at Llantarnham Grange Arts Centre in Cwmbran; the show will then tour Wales, the UK and the USA. I will keep you posted.

With sustainability in mind I have put together a group of 6 special offer kits for the winter months - two new designs using British Alpaca spun at Coldharbour Mill in Devon, two new designs using Rowan’s Purelife Organic Cotton and two all-time Autumn classics.
While sending for a kit, why not take advantage of my winter book offer. You can order a signed copy of ‘Knitwear’ and ‘Crochet Inspiration’ for only £15 each (a saving of £5 per book) go to order form.
I will be holding my annual knitwear sale at the Llanidloes Craft Fair from November 14th to December 24th, where I will have studio knit samples at bargain prices, so save some money and pick up a readymade designer sweater for a fraction of the cost!
Hoping to hear from you and maybe meet up at one of next year's events.
