Fiber Fool

That is all that came home with me from Brown Sheep! Can you imagine?

Okay, that isn’t *quite* the whole truth. I also brought home an “order” of yarn for two different sweaters for Amanda. She’s even planning on knitting of them for the Ravelympics! Go, Amanda!

Really, seriously, the 13 skeins of Top of the Lamb Sport seen above are the only things that came home with me to stay. I bought them to make the Gathered Pullover from the Winter 2007 IK (rav link). Amanda got yarn for that as well so we might do our own local KAL on that one when things for me slow down enough that I have time/energy to knit just for me.

The trip was fantastic though! 26 people were a part of the trip. It started at Sheila’s home with a fantastic breakfast on china and crystal. She has the most fantastic garden and fun and energizing home as well so it was a great way to kick off an early morning departure. I rode in the vehicle that she rode in so we were a bit behind everyone else so none of us got to take a tour, but we had all been on a tour not that long ago so it was no problem at all. Then there was a catered lunch with a deli tray and salads and two gals had birthdays on either side of our trip so there was also birthday cake and cookies.

Everything went so smoothly it was amazing. There was a Brown family emergency the day before our trip that kind of threw some of the plans out of kilter, but duties shuffled around and they pulled of a great day. I even got home early enough to run an errand and eat dinner with DH before going to SnB!
