Fiber high
Just came back from Maryland sheep and Wool. Need to nap.
In the meantime here is some yarn porn for you.
Note the koigu/kersti mill end plunder. The mill end booth was swarmed. There was plenty for us all in the AM, but I don't think I'm going to be forgiven by Chelle from hoarding the orange
(Note to self: next time move the empty plastic bag out of the photo, dumbass)
I also got a new Bosworth spindle, so more Crystal Palace DPNs, a big thing of Kookobura wash, dye packets, an antique sock darning egg, some dyed silk hankies and lots of undyed roving in various fibers.
I will tell you more later. Sleepy time.

Oh man, what a HAUL!!!!!
That antique sock darner looks like a maraca though...hee hee!
Oh. my. goodness. Those greens are to die for. How much were the skeins?
my, my, my...looks like your purchases multiplied since you got on the bus. Where did you have that sock darner hidden?
Lauren: I htink it was .12 a gram this year. Because they are mill ends and don't have an exact weight, they load them all on a scale and give you a total.
I have a handheld postage scale, so I can weight them when I want to figure out what I need to make something. I really think knitters should have one- they are only like $2 on ebay and really handy.
lisa: I forgot about the darner on the bus- it was buried in the mill ends.
My husband thinks it's a broken maraca too Bezzie!
Wow!
pant, pant, pant.....wanna pet it.
