I had a good time attending the 2011 Great Lakes Fiber Show with Yarmando & Darlamour.
I picked up three skeins of Creatively Dyed yarn.

On the left we have Woodbrook in colorway Toco. A 100% superwash merinao 250 yards (gauge 4-5 sts per inch on a 7-9)
Center we have Valencia in colorway Ramsay. A 100% extra fine superwash merinao 250 yards (gauge 4-5 sts per inch on a 7-9)
On the right we have Woodbrook in colorway Julian. A 100% superwash merinao 250 yards (gauge 4-5 sts per inch on a 7-9)
I wanted to find worsted weight superwash so I could knit socks. I cast-on with the Valencia on a size 6 and I don't think it's a true worsted weight. I'm going to have to go to a size 3 to get a firm enough gauge for socks. I'm waiting to knit these until I finish another pair of socks.
I love this picture of Yarmando as he shopped Ohio Valley Natural Fibers booth.
He picked up a sweater's worth of yarn.
The best line of the visit came from darlamour. "What's with the kkk sheep?" I think the picture explains it all.
I picked up an ecolution hemp bag TRT1: The Rainforest which is the perfect size for a pair of socks.
I had a good time and appreciated being driven up and enjoying the lemon shake-up.
Next time I'll show you my basket. You know you want to see my basket. It's okay. You wouldn't be the first person to ask to see it.

OK, now you know I want to see your basket!
So, I watched Suezee's vlogs, and loved the idea, so I started making my own vlogs. Then I went looking for other knitting vlogs and found yours (which I loved). Knitting vlogs are hard to find because knitters keep starting them and then losing interest. hint, hint, hint. lol
I love the Woodbrook in colorway Julian on the right. I love that color!
