It was quite the crowd at the recent Snow Splash Book Bash, in which DownEast, Pineland Farms, and Winter Kids joined forces to bring some outdoor fun and book lovers together. I shared a table with the sunny Karel Hayes, and we both enjoyed connecting with kids at the activity tables.
The day was cloudless and brilliant and everyone’s rosy cheeks were a good sign that Pineland’s rolling hills were a huge draw. I even headed out on my ancient x-c skis afterwards. Now, this is the kind of traffic I like.
Next up for Ice Harbor Mittens will be an island mitten tour, in which author Robin Hansen and I will visit both Long Island and Chebeague Island in the same day. Whew! Stay tuned for details on this March 4 event, followed by a knitting workshop on Saturday, March 5 with Robin at Knit Wits in Portland, Maine.
