Since my travels from Holland Michigan to Belleville, ON take me right past Aurora and Jeanne Field, we arranged a stop over.  What a thrill for me to spend down time with a wise and contemporary rughooking maven.  We chatted, cooked (well certainly missed Andrea and Jim for that part), and solved all the problems in our small universe together for two days.

A sneak peak into the studio of Rittermere-Hurst-Field revealed a new collection of stockings by several rughooking artists.  Andrea had asked these people to create a stocking design and they were revealed at a Circle of Friends hook-in sponsored by the company.  The indigenous people’s design on top is Jeanne’s.
