Hip Knitter
Chloe Kestermont, a mohawk and tattoo wearing knitter represents the antithesis of the grandmother stereotype. Kestermont is a co-owner of the yarn store Purlescence in Sunnyvale. She's part of a group of yarn and fabric retailers who have become part of a trendy movement that involves and new, hip yarn stores knitters being online -- there's wireless Internet in shops -- and using fashionable eco-materials such as soy and bamboo. She plans to use soap bubbles at the Purlescence booth for the Stitches West trade show this week in Santa Clara. (LiPo Ching/Mercury News)

Day 2
This is the two-day China story I shot for the San Jose Mercury News regarding China's environment and growth, and the clean tech opportunites it could present to Silicon Valley. It was challenging because we had a story about pollution (which is an old story) and we were basically stuck in Beijing and Shanghai, which have been cleaned up.
