You know...all this hype leading up to the MD Sheep & Wool...well it’s damn true. I had the best time. It was a beautiful weekend weatherwise. To start the very long & fabulous day on Saturday was breakfast at the Double T Diner. I met Heather, Donna & Kelly there. Kelly...it was really great meeting you...finally...after all of the fabulous things that I hear about you from Heather. Boy was I shocked when in walked Carrie, Jenny & Anne Marie, Cheryl, Sara & a few others. We talked & ate…


Then everyone (except me...went to my Granddaughter’s First Communion) headed off to the festival. I met them later in the afternoon.

And of course I met Stephanie & got my book signed. Thanks Lauren for taking this great photo of Stephanie & I.

This is Tanya’s adorable little Zira. She is the cutest handmade amimal I have ever seen! And speaking of animals…

This baby Alpaca is such a cutie. Help me!

I’m the MAN!
After the festival we went to Strapazza’s for dinner…

We met up with Kate, her Mom & a friend, Rebecca, Beth, Elisa & Lauren. Here is Donna & I showing off our newly finished Cardigan’s…

What a fabulous day!!! I’m so happy that I got to meet lots of bloggers...but sad that I missed some that I really wanted to meet. Then on Sunday I went with my DH to the festival. I didn’t buy much yarn...but here is what I got…

This is Morehouse Merino. I like that they come in kits. They have beautiful yarn in gorgeous colors. These will knit up to a very lightweight scarf & wrap. Perfect for the warmer weather.

This is Suri Elegance. It is beautiful Laceweight Alpaca. I will probably make some lace shawls with these.
Last but not least, I bought this beauty…

She is called Swan Lake. This is from Golding. It’s great for travel & bringing along on knit nights!
I already can’t wait until next years Festival. I WILL make a point to meet up with lots more bloggers...you can bet on that!!!

Knitting News…
I have not had time to knit too much, but this is what I have done…

Wall Street Cables...also ‘Labor of Love’ for my DH. This baby has 186 stitches cast on just for the back. This sweater will take me a long time as I am knitting a couple other things at the same time.

Now that’s a lot of pics. Hope you enjoyed them!

We are going away tomorrow to Naples, FL with some other couples. It’s golf time & we are going to play 3 days in a row. I’m really looking forward to this trip. I’ll catch you all next week when I return. Have a fabulous week!!
