I'm in!
Today I got a letter from the Professional Knitwear Designers Guild letting me know I've been accepted as an Associate Member. How nice! I applied a few weeks ago--you have to send in a pattern you have written along with a large swatch, photo of the finished item, and a resume. You then have 2 years to work on becoming eligible for Professional membership, which basically entails having at least 3 designs published in at least 2 different commercial publications. This is totally what I want to be doing, and since they offer support, contacts, and mentorship along the way I thought I would apply.

Woo Woo! Congratulations!
Lisa,
Congrats on the membership!
I'm also on the knitU list and read about your new blog on there when you posted that you had just started it a few weeks ago. Well, I started mine a few months ago and for the life of me I can't figure out how to add links, change things around and basically make it look good. I've tried their help button but I'm thinking because I'm more of a visual person I just don't get what they're telling me to do. Your blog looks great! If you have any tips for another new blogger, give me a holler.
Happy Knitting.

Lisa, That is wonderful. I would love to become a member. Have you been published before? Okay, perhaps I'll read your blog for that answer, sorry :)!!
I'm designing a sweater right now for myself of which I ripped out once and now I'm starting all over again.
