This is the curling rink turned into trade show floor with just a few vendors putting the last finishing touches on their booths. The rest of us were up drinking coffee.
It was marvelous to see all the different facets of our industry getting together.
We had wholesale vendors talking to authors and tech editors,
store owners talking to vendors,
beautiful booths,
and wait, do I see some knitting being done!
At the end of the day we were still smiling.
Lynda, Sophy & Deb
So thanks to everyone who participated, the vendors, the store owners, designers, custom knitters, tech editors, volunteers, oh just everyone. Thanks for helping to pull us all together.
We'll have lots more photos on the KnitTrade site next week. We're a little fried right now. And if you are in Ontario you might just see some new product in your local yarn store.

Congratulations! I'll have to get there next year, for sure.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys for planning such a fabulous day. Brenda, Donna and I had a great time. I can't wait until my knitting class starts tomorrow so the gals can see my new yarns on the shelves, the books on the rack and the smiles on our faces.

Looked pretty empty. How many actual attendees did you have?
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great show! As a vendor I've never been treated so well...you even gave us food and beverage delivered to our booth. Thanks to all your helpers too. Someone was there when I needed a short break and help was available for set up and take down too. Looking forward to 2011!
ReplyDeleteI tried to make a comment earlier in the week but for some reason it never showed up. Hope you guys get this one.
