Thanks!! for sharing – this coming from an avid Nancy Bush fan. And you just verified that I’m not nuts – I thought awhile ago I read she was working on a lace book, then I never heard of it again and couldn’t remember where I read/heard it from. Ah, so happy she’s doing a lace book.

I missed this because of our trip East. Nancy, as you know is a big hero of mine in the world of knitting. She started the whole craze of sock knitting with her first book in 1992 (that may be my opinion but still..) and has been an inspiration to many knitters over the years. Great interview Lolly!

That was a wonderful interview! I adore all things Tasha Tudor, I knew she knit and about her animals, but it was so nice to read about Nancy’s experiance with her.

We had Nancy as our guest speaker at our Guild on Thursday night. She showed slides from Estonia. She is so gracious and informative. She was also at our Fall Retreat this last weekend. Although I couldn’t attend, all reports were that it was wonderful. Thanks for the interview. Patti in Portland, OR

Nancy Bush’s work is so thoroughly researched and easy to use. Thanks for illuminating some of her background & the glimpse of upcoming work! For me, one of the great pleasures of knitting is connecting to folk traditions and traditional women’s arts, and I love how Nancy makes that real for knitters today.
