MA Sheep & Wool


It was a beautiful day. I ended up getting there before 10 and went searching for the Spunky Eclectic booth. I saw all the colors from a distance and went off to say "Hi" to Amy. I did some shopping for gifts at the fair and then later on at Webs. I will post pictures when I knit/spin/felt them.
I ran into Marcy (http://habetrot.typepad.com/habetrot/) and watched her enable Laurie (http://etherknitter.typepad.com/etherknitter/) and her friend Manise into a lovely Alice Field Cormo cross fleece. It was the cleanest fleece I have ever seen.
I also saw Claudia (http://www.claudiasblog.net/) and her gorgeous new toy from the Bosworths.
It was a very nice day. A little warm but a lot of fun to actually meet some bloggers that I read and run into ones that I have known for many years.

FO Number One

I bought the pattern and yarn for this online from a yarn in Alabama (I think) when I read about it online. It came in off white or blue and I ordered the blue. It has been in the stash for years until I knew a boy was on the way. It will be getting delivered in June. The pattern is by Plymouth and the yarn is Plymouth Mimosa. It is a very cute, quick top down sweater.
