June 5: Gwen Bortner

Gwen Bortner (@EntrelacQueen) teaches entrelac and many other knitting techniques at workshops and conferences across the country. She’s been published in Knitter’s Magazine, Creative Knitting and lots of other places. You can find Gwen’s patterns, books, classes and thoughts on life on her website, Knitability, and her blog, The Same Stitch.

There were two live giveaways during the podcast: Gwen’s book Entrée to Entrelac and Gwen’s class with Craftsy.com, and Sherry was the winner both times! In the class you’ll make a neck-warmer, an infinity scarf, and a cape. These patterns are exclusive to the class but you can find more entrelac patterns in Gwen’s Craftsy.com store.

There is a second chance to win Gwen’s book in The Yarn Thing Ravelry group and on the Marly Bird Facebook page. Your code word is “Green”!

The second giveaway is a free class with Gwen at STITCHES Midwest Expo or STITCHES East Expo. Your code word is “XRX” and please tell us a STITCHES story! Leave a comment in The Yarn Thing Ravelry group or the Marly Bird Facebook page.  Marly will choose a winner for each giveaway in about 3 weeks from the podcast air date.
