You've probably been half expecting this after Monday's post - it's time for me to take some time off the blog, because of... things. Exciting things. Conference-y things.

I'll be travelling to the Knitting Symposium at the TRC in Leiden, where I am utterly delighted to be part of the panel discussion. Once I am back here, I will go straight on to the European Textile Forum, and after that, experience tells me, I will be totally knackered and will need a few days to recuperate, and then there's my Gran's Birthday coming up (she is turning ninety-eight!) and I will be home for that.

So... expect blog silence here until Monday, November 18.
