How exciting! Congratulations Ritaw!!! Rita sent in a letter with a picture of all her lovely Blossoms she made from a Simply Knitting pattern by Alan Dart. They are gorgeous and she is so talented. They published her letter and picture in this month's Simply Knitting!!! (Feb 2008, page 21).

Thank you so much Mary for letting me know. The magazine is still not in the shops here so i will have to wait a few more days to get my copy. I would have thought the magazine would let me know.
I am so happy:)
Thank you for your kind words MDF

Congratulations! You do such beautiful work - you deserve the recognition.

Thanks Newfygirl :)
I know i sent it in September/october but it is such a shock. I will have to contain myself until it is in the shops lol

RitaW, that's great! And the blossoms look wonderful!

Wow Rita, this is just great! I know someone famous.... remember me when you hit the big times please!

Wow! How exciting RitaW! Congrats!!!!! :happydance:

Congratulations Ritaw...I have the magazine and the article looks great x

Oooh - they look so lovely! Well done, that lass!

Many congratulations, Rita. :muah:

All Best Wishes.

welldone rita! im not surprised they published it ... those blossoms look wonderfull!

Congratulations Rita. You and your Blossoms are now famous.

I can't wait to see it!! I just now got the December '07 issue. I really should subscribe, but it doesn't hurt as badly paying $9 a month rather than $100 a year.

I'm so thrilled for you! I'm luckey enough to have one of Rita's 'Little Blossoms' and she's gorgeous so I'm not suprised your photo's been printed. I look forward to seeing it in the flesh!

Hooray for Rita!!!!

So well deserved. She has been "Rita to the Rescue" for me on several occasions. Wonderful and talented person.

:cheering: :cheering: :cheering:

Of course it will probably be months and months until it hits the bookstores here, but I will be looking for it!

:woohoo:Oh Rita, that is so wonderful! Congratulations, and how very exciting!!!

This is so wonderful, good work!

I'm surprised, however, that they don't at least send you a free copy.

Now, who is the other person from KH?

Wow, that's awesome. I can't see the picture very well. :( I bet they are adorable.

I would love to have a copy of this magazine, especially this one! Congrats, Rita! Is there somewhere in the states it is sold?

I do know that it is sold in the US but a few issues behind. I am not sure where or which shops though as i am in the UK . Maybe someone from the Us will tell us :)

Congratulations! :)

Barnes and Noble carries it. Also Borders. It is usually 2 months behind. The cost is $9.99.
