Y2Knit is pleased to have an intern this summer. Sonja Holmgren is a Fashion Merchandising student at the University of Akron, which partners with the National NeedleArts Assn to place interns. She'll be at the "world headquarters" in Funkstown for about 7 weeks, then go to SF to spend 10 days with Jill.Sonja is staying with Chris and Pete Madeo, wonderful people who have opened their home to her. Frankie is letting us borrow a computer. 'It takes a village'! Thanks to everyone who is providing or will be providing some kind of support during her stay here.
I moved the green "desk" which sits under the window in the laundry room/next to the bathroom. It's a highly visual space as it can be seen from the office and classroom so I like it too look inviting. The window is an old one and most of the small bottles on the ledge I found when digging in my garden. The red door leads to the bathroom.
The green desk is now in the corner of the "great room" where the two chairs previously sat. Sonja can work here and we can run wires for the computer to the printer and internet in the drop ceiling. She's only about 6 feet from my desk, but there's a wall in between. I think it will be a comfortable space. The window is a "fake" one--it used to be an outside window, but now is inside. Where the desk is used to be the backyard! Sonja will have a view of the large side entry and can see through the windows there to the outside. She can also pivot her head and have a view of my lovely garden out the back door.
Our family loves to move furniture! Susan and I had talked about how to set up the computer for Sonja and I think this will be a good location where Sonja can have a little space of her own. It is always fun to see how Susan changes her space.
