It was great!!!
I took a class on knitting and designing fair isle socks with Janel Laidman.
Great class, already designing a sock, here's the swatch.
I volunteered as a TA for Syne Mitchell in an eTextiles class, also very cool, working on putting some lights into my knitting (no swatches yet).
I got to meet Stephanie Pearl-McPhee.
I had VooDoo Donughts.
I finished knitting a pair of stripy socks for me.
And, of course, I shopped!
Hand knit green cowl (made by me, worn at Sock Summit), yellow fluff is a verb for keeping warm BFL roving in the Nugget colorway, blue fluff is Sincere Sheep BFL roving (they are destined to go together in some project or other), and the yellow yarn is Jezebel in colorway 710.
Earrings by Jennie the Potter.
Blue and white merino/bamboo blend sock yarn.
The Jezebel 710 pictured above, this time on it's own on my desk.
Blue Moon Fiber Arts, rare gem colorway in Earth.
Hand dyed alpaca lace weight yarn in the limited edition (oh my) colorway Broadway from my new local yarn shop Yarn Garden.
More alpaca lace wight in Silver.
And yet more in Provence.
And some merino lace weight from the Carolina Homespun booth, this is going to be knit up into a stripy shawl with the Silver alpaca.
I had a great time all weekend, it was like summer camp.
