Countdown to Stitches
Next week is Stitches West....it's like waiting for Christmas! One of our knitting friends will have booth there Snicklefritz Yarns(#637) and I'm super excited for her. She's a scientist and the colors she comes up are gorgeous colors. Her blog is here.
Last Spring when we were training for the 3-day walk, she showed up with big bag of yarn colors she was playing with and we all played at naming the colors. She held up a skein and I blurted out "Gnome Running Through the Forest Naked"! Well, she's perfected the colorway (the naked part got dropped but we know he is, wink) :
I can't wait to knit a pair of socks with it.
She'll be there with Pigeonroof Studios and they'll also have designs by Kira K so it's going to be a fabulous booth!

Last weekend I dragged Left Coast Knitter out to run some errands with em and we had lunch at Chow in Lafayette. Perfect comfort food.
We split a side order of mac n cheese.
Sadly it wasn't as good as it looks (not enough cheesy richness) but we inhaled it anyway. The BLT & Avocado sandwich and fries I had was delicious.

Great name for the yarn, even with the naked

I hope I make it to Stitches this year! And I totally want to steal your gnome.
I'm so jealous, I wanna go to Stitches! *envy*
But erm, I don't wanna know which of those colors represents the naked.
I like your naming style! I'd love to run into you at Stitches but I don't know if I can go. Wah!

How could the "naked" part get dropped??? It's crucial. Oh well, gorgeous yarn and a great name anyway. Enjoy Stitches - I'm counting down to the East version myself.
