Original piece taken from Wikipedia: Meg Swansen

Meg Swansen is a renowned knitting designer, owner of Schoolhouse Press and the daughter of Elizabeth Zimmermann. Similar to her mother, she has helped to popularize knitting and is a well-respected author and knitting teacher, especially at her knitting retreats. Swansen also writes a long-running regular column in Vogue Knitting called "Meg Swansen on...", that covers everything from the Turkish cast on (Fall 2005) to lace knitting (Spring/Summer 2006) to the recherché Scandinavian two-end knitting (Winter 2006/2007).

Swansen runs a knitting camp in Marshfield (Wisconsin). This camp was begun in 1974 by Elizabeth Zimmermann, but when her mother retired Meg took over the organization of the event.
