postcard from Sock Summit 2011

We and IT are here.


Sock Summit has officially started. Gladys is having a great time teaching and I'm having a great time learning. We definitely feel like we've been transported to another world:


If you don't get the reference, look it up! BTW, the show - in all it's incarnations is filmed just a few kms from where I live.

We are both enjoying the shopping ;) I will take photographs of my stash when I get home but just trust me when I say, "WOW!". As you can probably guess, most of it is spinning fiber :) While I did bring my spinning wheel, I do not have it to try out my new fiber. It is with one of the Fleece to Foot teams and it was be participating in Sunday's competition.

Tomorrow is my last class and Gladys' lecture. My supplies are packed for class and so is my cow bell for the lecture. She is going to KILL me.

Love the photo, and of course, because our TV only gets the Space Channel, I DO know what show{s} you are referring to.
Looking forward to fondling your new fibre stash, and I promise.......no drooling on fibres.
HEY, if G is going to "kill you". What a way to go !! LOL (Don't they always say......."go out with bells on......"
See ya soon !
