Such an amazing time away - met heaps of Ravelers, stayed out drinking and talking, laughing with new friends waaaay later than I should have ;), got to handle wool I had only read about, and discovered wool I'd never heard of. Had BBQ breakfast by the lake with a bunch of like-minded souls, all resplendent in handknits, and spent most of Saturday out at the Showgrounds going round and round, discovering new stands each time!
came home with the bags stuffed to breaking point, and looking like a total wool mule! My head is still reeling from the whole weekend, but I just wanted to show you a couple of things before I collapse in my bed!
Pear Tree 12ply in Nut:
Pear Tree 8ply in Camo:
and some more Pear Tree 8ply in Blush and Galah:
such beautiful wool, I think I may leave this lot on "open display" in the main living area!
more to come over the next few days...
oh, and 62cherry has tagged me for a meme, which I must remember to get to, once my brain comes back down to earth and the heady wool fumes have cleared!!!
