Which means we had the big shop hop. I did not participate in the shop hop, as it involved 14 stores this year. 14 shops in four days is too much even for me. I did, however visit two of my favorites. Isn't this display great?
This shop has fabric too, and a pink duct-tape dress with duct-tape flower appliques.
I finished a pair of socks - the stripes pooled around the ankles, which means Girl-child will probably get them. She doesn't mind the pooling so much. The colors are great - colorway is called Vampire's Kiss, which is without a doubt why I purchased it.
And, of course, I cast on a new pair of socks since I always have to have a pair on the needles. This is a beautiful dark green with just a little blue. They'll be for Boy-child, since he's not going to school in the tropics.
... plus, I sent in my check for Minnesota Knitters' Days with Lucy Neatby in October, and I have The Kat for a room mate!
Life is good...yarn and friends...friends and yarn...

I worked at the Yarnery Sunday afternoon, and there were people who had already done 13 shops. Made me tired just thinking about it!
At Drunken Knit Night (Friday) there was a gal who had already been to all 14 shops - in two days! I almost fell out of my chair (not because of too much beer...)
Yee-haw!
