Way late posting

Quick update, I've started teaching at The Yarn Garden in Portland, I'm test knitting a cool lace shawl, and I have two patterns for sale online!

A swatch for the test knit.

Pattern one for sale, Portlandia Hat.

Pattern two for sale, Cable Loop Cowl.

Happy Birthday to me!

A snapshot of my yarn haul from yesterday.



A closeup.



Dream in Color, a yarn manufacturer in the Chicago suburbs, had a warehouse/mill ends sale yesterday, my birthday. I brought home about $300 worth of lovely hand dyed yarn for $75.

It was great!

Saturday!


That's right, we went to Yarn Con.

After I noted that the lady at the door had failed to complete my "x", Josh pointed out that it was most likely intended to be a "y". As he put it, "Y, for yarn."

The event was a little underwhelming. Especially after the Stitches marketplace. I didn't buy anything. I saw some fiber and yarn that I liked, but not anything that really struck me. More yarn money for another day I guess. They gave us nifty little yarn con pins, Josh said he wasn't going to wear his, go figure. I'm glad I went. If I decide to go again I'll probably try to take a more yarn centric companion.
