Maryland Sheep and Wool - May 2008
My first knitting-related festival. Awww. It was all that I'd dreamed of and more. First off, there were indeed sheep.
And other fiber-producing critters.
But it wouldn't be the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival without yarn. OMG - Yarn!!!! Here's my haul.
Just kidding. I went with three other yarnies - that above is our collective purchases. Here's mine.
I got some absolutely gorgeous seasilk blend from Tilli Thomas' booth. I'm thinking it will be a clapotis shawl. Mmmmm. Seasilk. Clapotis.
It was a good time. But kind of crowded - so many yarnies!
Good thing the Yarn Widower decided to stay home - maxin' and relaxin'.

I am sorry that I missed you! and wow! you got some nice things! Lovely colors :)
ReplyDeletethat is hilarious. i love your pile o' yarn. how did you solve your yarn elbow? b/c i'm getting typing pinkie
ReplyDeleteThe yarn elbow still flares up now and then. I figure the same tips go for typing pinkie - now that I think of it, typing really is one of the few things that gives those diminutive digits a workout. Maybe you should blog about that - it could be a new medical diagnosis. Maybe they'll name it after you - Tinaitis.
ReplyDeleteI loved experiencing my first fiber festival with you, Sung-Ji!
ReplyDeleteso did you get to pet some sheep? do they bite?
