What a fabulous interview, and I really liked the intro with the Walker groupies!
ReplyDeleteAm I the only person who wishes Barbara was still knitting away? One can only imagine what the woman who wrote those wonderful stitch dictionaries might still contribute to the world of knitting!
I am Mary Walker Phillips' nephew. I wrote a book in 2007 called "The Good Intent: The Story of a Fresno Family" about Mary's parents and their families. The book contains two photos of Mary, one during her days as a weaver, and the other was taken in 2003. The book was published about a week after Mary passed away.
