Last night was the second Knit-In I attended at my LYS, Simply fibers, and it was a blast! Carol was crazy and hyped up as always, and I'm starting to get to know some of the regulars. I also met the ever-charming Zarah from the comments. I think a trip to Rhinebeck may be in our future! As my friends will know, my luck with winning things continued, as my name was drawn to become the proud owner of a Lantern Moon Christmas Basket! Of course, I had to make purchase some additional stash to keep in it!
I made good progress on the secret Christmas project, and since I'm pretty confident that the recipient doesn't read the blog, I'm going to go ahead and post a picture:
This is the Fern Lace Wrap pattern from "The Little Box of Scarves." The yarn is KnitPicks Elegance in Cornflower. It's very yummy to work with, but my mind is already racing ahead to what my next project should be. I've got some Noro Kuryeon in the stash that's calling my name, but I've also got some sweater patterns I'd like to try. Then there's the sock yarn stash - too many choices! I may have to put it up for a vote by the commenters!
I'm off today on a quest for the last of the purchased Christmas gifts. Have a good weekend, everyone!

Hey Tammy, it's was great to meet you! I finished up my Xmas shopping today, too. I'm sending you good shopping vibes for your many stops at Wal-Mart today. =)

Babe,
While the many stops at many different Wal-Marts were less than successful, it was great to spend the day with you checking them all!
Love you,
Robert
