I went last year and had the same reaction to meeting Emily Ocker--a real double take. Then I realized that half of the folks in the Camp knits and Gathering of Lace book were there. And Debbie New. I'm surprised I didn't pass out.<BR/><BR/>Remember that some folks are saying "did you know the panopticon was going to be here?" in awe and excitement.<BR/><BR/>This year I was going to go again but then had to have a surprise major surgery in late June and had to cancel my registration. That was more painful than the surgery.<BR/><BR/>Meg had told me last year that you were going to be shooting at this year's Retreat 3 so I foolishly put off getting a photo taken at the local shoots in anticipation of the big anniversary camp bash.<BR/><BR/>Is it at all possible to get my photo taken before you do your final away shoot? I live in downtown Chicago so could easily get to your place or where ever public transportation could take me.<BR/><BR/>Melindafirstyouleaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08056858307507615377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10901468.post-51645901460320369622008-07-25T22:27:00.000-04:002008-07-25T22:27:00.000-04:00well.

With all the effort you put into the project, and more importantly reaching out to people, you deserve it. Hopefully knitters out there will be able to look at this and see that the knitting community takes all kinds of people. Yay for Franklin!!<BR/><BR/>And I am honored to have met you and accidently become knitter 0001. (I hope the cast-on edge does not look horrible, and the end has been woven in!

Ok, while Franklin is busy with Camp, let's have a contest for the technique we'll call The Franklin. Yes, it has to do with knitting.
