back from rhinebeck



Ah, the joys of fiber. These are just a few of the lovelies that I picked up to spin away my hours. I bought about four pounds, so I'm hoping that it lasts me for awhile. I think the misty grey weather was influencing my color choices (as was my conscious avoidance of the jewel tones that overpopulate my stash right now). I'm very proud of myself for only buying yarn from the artists at Brooks Farm, who paint colors and that I couldn't duplicate on luscious yarns.

Other things I did? I met people, ate fried dough, spent quality time with Kita and her boy, held a chicken, petted sheep, made soupy cinnnamon apples without a recipe, spent too much time in the car, watched Last Samurai, and even got a few rows of knitting done. Of course, work is now out of control (I was working on a presentation til 10:30 last night), but the weekend felt like it lasted six days, and that was definitely a good thing.

Held a chicken! I hope that you did not contract avian flu.
