I envy your shopping prowess! I went to a fiber fest this weekend and didn't buy a single thing! Must learn your secrets for choosing the must-haves.

Wow! Excellent haul. And that sock yarn is beautiful. Sounds like you all had a great time, I'm terribly jealous :o)

So the price of the train ticket wasn't wasted then?! What a fantastic hoard -well done you! Enjoy! The spun yarn is awesome. I look forward to seeing what it knits up as.

Thank you. I am so vicariously energized by your enthusiasm and excitement and new stash! WOW! Don't worry too much about evenness of your spinning--it will all work itself out when you wash it and start knitting. Also, please use all the odd half hours...definitely. If you wait for the long spinning sessions, you'll get a lot less practice and a lot less done. Oh, I wish I could rush right

I'm so glad you didn't hold back on the stash, kne...

I'm so glad you didn't hold back on the stash, knew you wouldn't let me down! Maybe next year I'll get there. The spinning looks wonderful, it will make a pair of lovely socks. Send some spinning mojo over here, I could do with some at the moment.

You fell down hard at Ally Pally! That's my girl. Looks like a great way to go, too. By the way, you will thoroughly enjoy the resulting knits from Teyani's yarn. I know I do.

chain of fools looks awesome.
remember that it WILL bloom when washed vigorously (as it should be washed) - I hope that knitting it is just as much fun!

Erm, that is a HUMUNGOUS stash (makes my haul look quite paltry). That rucksack of your must be some kind of tardis!

So you DID go back and buy the quiviut, after all!...

2007-10-15T14:30:00.000-07:00

So you DID go back and buy the quiviut, after all! Ooh, it was lovely, but the price was more than I could justify to myself. I think I have to KNOW what I'm going to knit with it for that kind of money.

Thanks so much for doing Ally Pally with me, it really made my day.

I LOVE that colour!! what is it?

It was so nice to meet you (on Thursday was it?). Thanks for the tip on the mohair!

Ally Pally was fab - such a great experience.

But sorry to disappoint - no plans on getting in an octopus costume anytime soon!!! ;)
