Article in Let's Knit

I just wanted to share the great news that I've been featured in the May issue of Let's Knit! They've also put together a giveaway of my products for one of their competitions and I'm very excited that a lucky participant will receive such a lovely set of knitting items, such as these:
KB Yarns Orient Mohair & Velvet

A set of 'Harem' sitch markers

A pair of one of these sets of handmade Iznik ceramic buttons

They're also including a pair of KB Marble Knitting Needles, and I'm really blown over by all the interest people have kindly shown toward KB Knitting as a result of reading about me in Let's Knit. Elaine, Assistant Editor from the magazine, did a great job and I'm now left a bit envious of the lucky people who get to work for knitting magazines...

    I visited Turkey on holiday two years ago and was desperate to find some yarn shops and purchase some turkish yarn. I love to crochet. I am back again this August in Hisarano, have you any idea where I can get some yarn? Also whereabouts are you in Turkey?

    Hi Vera,
    Is that near Marmaris? There are several towns called that in Turkey. If it's in Marmaris, then there are a couple of fabulous yarn shops in the city centre. Are you spending any time in Istanbul, too? I can send you details of LYS in the areas you're visiting if you email me. There is a lot of cotton available especially for crochet in Turkey.
    I'm in the province of Kocaeli, a couple hours from Istanbul.
