Now that the books have finally landed in many hot hands of OAK knitters, it is time to show what it took us to get it all to work!

Vanessa got back from her short trip abroad to find out that the books have finally been released from customs and can be promptly sorted out and packaged to get on their merry way to our loyal subscribers, who trusted and believed in us, who wanted to be the first to see the book, the result of hard work of a year and a half! For that we thank you all!!

Some logistic issues had to be sorted out, as for our subscribers we wanted to have their copies signed by both of us, but being separated by the Pacific Ocean – Vanessa in California, myself in Japan – we have found a solution! And now each book had our signatures in them. Yes for success!

Once all lists and preparations were ready, Vanessa and her husband got to work on packing and mailing hundreds of boxes!! Just to give you an extent, many haven’t expected our book to be hard cover copy, but they do weigh significantly more than regular paperback, so lifting and carrying it all – one big work out! Now if you were waiting for them books to arrive, please get yourself a copy!  You can get it directly from us or from a chosen group of yarn stores in the United States as well as several stores overseas. Time to beat summer heat with knitting those weather perfect garments! I am wearing Airfoil skirt today in this 80F heat and it feels breezy, love the pockets and that it’s a stretchy knit without being sheer.

Let me hear that knitting needles music, ladies and gentlemen!
