Nirvana

… also known as the Maryland Sheep & Wool Festival. I laughed, I cried, I shopped. In other words, a perfect weekend. It was crowded like always, but not so badly that I felt like I was going to have a panic attack in the main exhibition building (like the last two years.) Maybe I’m just getting used to it.

I met up with my friends, including Cindy, Joan, Kim, Theresa and many other wonderful people who don’t happen to have blogs. (yet)

I bought way too much sock yarn, including Soft Touch Ultra from Shelridge Farms, Esmerelda from the Flock Bransonas (new to me), Jitterbug, Tofutsies, Sockotta, and Trekking.

I actually bought non-sock yarn too. This year I was seduced by lace weight yarn. It’s such a bargain – you really get a lot of mileage for the buck. Of course it takes forever to knit, but I chose to ignore that fact.

I bought some absolutely gorgeous silk from Spirit Trail Fiberworks. Again, I’m not too sure what I’m going to do with it, but once I picked it up I just couldn’t put it back down.

All in all, another great year. Of course now I’m itching to start a new project. I just haven’t decided which one to do first. *smile*
