The de-stash event

Well, I tried! I took a whole shopping bag of yarn that's been sitting in my stash for years and I took it to Charlotte Yarn's annual yarn swap & anniversary sale. My wimpy little stash didn't hold a candle to the massive piles of yarn some of you have out there! So instead of destashing, I did what I do best: STOCK UP! I came back with twice as much as I left the house with this morning?? Whoops.

Euroflax, Wool Cotton, and Koigu--oh my!

What a great event! Thanks Remi and staff for having such an awesome shop! :)

What you see here in the bag is what I came back with, and the stuff I took to the swap?  Well, it's still in the car!  Couldn't bring all of it up at once or there might be some questioning....

This is just a quickie post, so if you want the details, gotta go to ravelry and check out the stash...

Love everything I got today! Love, love, love! Now I can't wait to get this cast off (for good) and actually KNIT! Don't get me wrong, I love crochet. But I miss my knitting!



Oh yeah, I promised a picture of the dress today, but I didn't get a good one. So at least, here's a teaser:

(P.S. Happy Birthday, Shannon! :) Glad I could spend some time with ya today!)

Good gracious girl you really did get lots of great stuff! Hope your wrist heals soon- that cast has to be tough to wear in July! I love the print on you your dress, and that bolreo is pretty cute too!
