I had a lovely time at the launch of Twinset at Glasgow's Women's Library on the 19th. I just love the space of the library anyway, with the archive all boxed up and ready for its move to the Mitchell, and the books and the brightly painted loos, complete with a bicycle. (Who's bicycle is that?!) Add music and people milling around and new books and a gin and tonic and I'm happy indeed. Run by Jane McKie, Knuckerpress is fast gaining a reputation for beautifully produced pamphlets, and Twinset is no exception. Sunday, February 08, 2009

Thanks, Liz, for this lovely description/comment---oh do I wish I could've been there! Some amazing, beautiful, stay-with-you illustrations and poems in Twinset. Jane McKie and her co-designer, as well as the 2 poets and 2 illustrators, created a wonderful pamphlet. Knuckerpress----yes!
