My woke up really early and snucked out of the house before anyone can catch me and drive over an hour to line up at the door. All this for yarns - only a true knitter will understand.

Also, I was passing through one booth who had the Pattern Tamers on sale for $20. I finally got the chance take a reallly good look at them and they are basically magnet clued on ribbons. I really appreciate the idea but I think I am going to shamelessly steal the idea and make my own for a bout $1

In other news, I finished my plain vanilla socks knitted with 2 circular. It is STR Sedona. It is now being blocked after 15 min of emersing in Soak - The Sweet Sheep scent. A new scent that I picked up at the festival.
