i'm going to cut to the chase, because in the end, you all want to know what i brought home.
i'm a relatively boring festival shopper. i rarely if ever come home with a giant haul and this time around was no exception. i'm sorry.
but i didn't come home empty handed.
my first purchase on saturday consisted of 4 new dyes -- hot pink, turquoise, chartreuse and gun metal, and another size 1 circular needle. i also bought a pound of blue-faced leicester fiber. so expect some dyeing experiments soon. i did not buy a cat.
and on sunday, finding The Fold (you know, the crazy ass booth where Socks that Rock is sold) relatively empty i purchased two skeins of STR. these two skeins had to come home with me.
and although i didn't stand in line to get this yarn, i did stand in line for beer and to get my copy of franklin's adorably funny book "it itches" signed. and standing in line wasn't even bad since i got to chat with some very nice people that i normally wouldn't get to. like the nice woman from florida. hi!
so that's all. honestly. i did buy some fudge for j and some cheese for me. but that's it.
