They send me the 6 skien of "Malabrigo"yarn before week to start the hat or sweater(I was kintting the hat)..you can see the pic here

Before 30min from taping the show, staff did my face touch up and install micophone

Ready and walk to the stage and three big shooting camera and lights waiting for me!!
Stage was great!!!! It was really big, bigger then the living room! It looks so small when i was watching through the tv.

As knitster on the show, our job was (me and two lady) sitting on stage knitting hat or sweater and talk on opening of first and taping and anwering the Q. host "Vickie Howell" ask...

I was working on hat pattern: This!!!

We didn't do lot of talking, I think each of knitster did 3min anwering Vickie's Q. The show was about the dog so we took a shot with the dog.. It took us more time to taping...you know moving anmai,, It's not standing still...So we go over many time but it was not that bad!!!
