Findings

I've neglected my knitting while on holiday, can you imagine that all I brought back after 2 1/2 weeks away was one sock? And that one I can't even share with you yet. But while travelling through England and Ireland there were lots of things to do and discover, that make a fibre friend smile. You already know I went to Woolfest (and I'm still so happy I was able to - what a terrific event), I enjoyed that I had the chance to accompany my friend Yola to her Knit and Chat group at her LYS, I discovered that apparently some fleece is dyed while still on the sheep - these ones really made me laugh:

and I learnt that my way of knitting socks is perfect for me. Much easier to knit with DPNs than to learn how to manage this sock knitting machine, lol.

There was even another yarny surprise while abroad, but telling you about that one will have to wait until there's a little less work on my desk. Soon, I hope. :)

A day without knitting is like a day without sunshine.
