Subtitle: I haz sad

Sub-subtitle: does it count as Day 6 if it’s not a whole day?

Sub-sub-subtitle: How long do you think I can drag this trip out in blog posts.

Wow.  Just wow.  I still don’t think I can summarize the week yet. Of course that could be the severe lack of sleep, late nights, walking for 6 hours carrying 50 pounds of wool festival booty, or the really good food.  (I’m trying to figure if it would be uncouth to invite Angie and Dan down and have Dan cook all the meals.)

I’m amazed at how few pictures I took. (although I didn’t download all I could of them off of my crackberry yet)  I am however not amazed at the lack of knitting.  There was way too much fun to be had.

Including Cookie’s “shawl of doom” ™ that she knit for me.  You’ll have to ask her about the detail-details. I know it’s The Honeybee Stole and the yarn was some type of jaggerspun super-tiny lace stuff.

I couldn’t knit it and she was nice enough to do it for me. Although I don’t know if she is talking to me yet.  O.o  The thing is huge.  HUGE.  It took up most of my guest room in the blocking. We’re guestimating it at least 10 feet.  (I had to get creative and unbend hangers and used over 150 t pins and a bunch of the yellow balled quilt pins to boot.)  If I get more blocking wires, it could go longer.

Don’t those Wisconsinites look happy?  Ya, yabetchya!

My plane should be here shortly and I’m excited to return home and be reuinited with my new stash.

Happy Monday y’all!
