It looks like so much fun! I can’t wait to see the Creatively Dyed 15 color skeins, sound amazing.

That handspun looks BEAUTIFUL. I think my handspun feels like you’re describing yours–I like the look of lots of twist, but it feels stringy to me, not soft and squooshy. If Amy’s giving lessons, I want to come, too!

The Gnome holding your handspun is sooo cute.

Do you ever watch BBC-America? They have a show called Bargain Hunt where two teams go to those wonderful antique fairs they have in England with 200 pounds from the BEEB to spend. At the end of an hour their things are collected and two weeks later taken to a professional auction where they are sold. If they make a profit the team gets to keep it. Well, last week at one of the fairs there was shown a booth that contained nothing but hands, mostly in pairs. Fascinating! Love the new yarns I’ve gotten. Bye for now.

Well we missed seeing you since we went on Sunday! Hope you had a nice visit and great travel. Hey, I live in Baltimore! Maybe next year you could give me a secret heads up and I could show you around!
Lotsa Good Wishes Sheri!

The Loopy Elves really are the best. Hugs to them all!! : ) Hope you had a great time at Stitches. I’ve never been to one either. One of these days… I was in Atlantic City with some friends, so there was no knitting this weekend! : )

“Honestly, I never meant to collect hands.”

Seriously, this must be the funniest sentence I have ever read!!! Thank you, Sheri for a good Monday-morning laugh and for all the hard work you and the elves have done! Anxiously waiting for my packet of Malabrigo sock to arrive here in Helsinki…

It is strange how things are like that. I just happened to mentin I use to collect dolls and my girls have bought me 4 dolls so far and then i started up again. Icant afford real antiques but love the reproductions just as well: as long as they are beautiful.
THat yarn looks lovely. Love the little elf. WHere did you get the pattern from? I would love to make one. So wanted to buy yarn but had three papers due and by the time I had those done it was Wensday and then our electric kept shutting off as we had a blizzard on the way starting in the afternoon. sigh.
Well I hope none of you get our blizzard but we had 60 mile winds with 80 mile gusts, downed cellphone towers, electric lines tons f snow. We personally had no electric for 12 hours but many places still dont have electric specially the further offroad they are. Many roads are still not plowed and this was our very first snow of the season. But I am glad everyone got stuff.
Hope you like Stitches and will have tons to tell us SHeri. CAnt wait for the recipies next week.

loveya

I just got home from Stitches and had a great time.

I can’t belive I missed Sheri and she was 2 tables away yesterday in the Cafe. I saw a woman, who looked like Sheri, but for some reason I didn’t think she was coming to Stitches. I’m not shy but things were complicated at that moment and I didn’t go over and inquire. Darn…or better yet FPS as Sheri would say!

Moral of the story is to read Sheri’s column before leaving Central PA for Stitches!
