I'm so excited! We're in the hotel having breakfast now, but we will be on our way in about 15 minutes. Here is the schedule for our day:
10-11 Vendors: We get to check out the latest yarns , patterns, etc., but no purchasing! I'm pretty sure we just get to take cards and order them on the internet and such later. Maybe I will do a review of some of these for my project.
11-12 Free Form Knitting: This is a new concept. No pattern, gauge, or plan whatsoever. Pick up the yarn and begin! We are going to learn how this works.
12-1 Tunisian Crochet: I believe this is an African form of crochet. We're going to learn how to do it.
1-1:30 Dog Fashion Show: Doggy sweaters - this is going to be sooooo cute!
1:30-2:00 Fashion show (human): This is what I am looking forward to most, and I plan on getting some video so you can watch it on my website!
Then we leave. :( Unfortunately it is a 6 hour drive home, and Mom and Dad have to turn around tomorrow morning and drive to Indiana.
I finished Grandma's socks, and they turned out ok. I accidentally did the ribbing at the top as K2, P2 instead of K1, P1 so its a little looser than I would have liked. They should fit fine though, especially after they're washed. Now I am knitting a pair of brown wool socks for Kyle. It feels really good knitting him something I know he needs. And he's such a great sport. He has been behind my knitting since day one. Every now and again he looks at me like I've gone overboard, which I never have of course, but mostly he is proud that I am good at it. And he loves the results, particularly when they involve him!
