What a charming, talented man,Mr. Noro! Saw him throw out the first pitch at the Mariners baseball game Tuesday night, and by amazing chance he came to talk where I work!!! One of the only 2 places he visited.
His first visit to USA. Speaks very little English, brought an interpreter to help answer questions about his love of color and fiber! Did you know he tells a story with all his color ways?
Here I am, maybe a little to close, but wanting to get my Noro vest in the shot ~ Such a high-fiber life I lead!
I'm glad you got to meet Mr. Noro, Kelli. You wore your pretty vest knit with his yarn, too. Great picture!
ReplyDeleteThanks Andrea~ working at WildFibers has brought a lot of perks!
DeleteLooks like your were having a great time. Love the vest, did Mr. Noro like it? Hugs
ReplyDeleteWas exciting in a room full of star struck knitters and a gracious fiber/earth loving guest from Japan~

ReplyDeleteNoro is my fav yarn for socks, tho they don't often match. They last so long, partly because they felt the more you wear them. Love the vest Kelli. You are so lucky to meet the actual NORO.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I do have to pinch myself some days~
DeleteFantastic! I love being around such inspiring people ;)
ReplyDeleteYep. People helping people grow!
