Ok, I'm home again. Had a wonderful time and followed lots of your
advice. I had a large bag, money, good shoes. Looked at lots before
buying anything. I ended up buying very little (just some hot pink
roving and a skein of beautifully dyed deep red-toned fingering wool).
Next time, I'll go equiped with patterns/quantities of yarn in mind.
Fun stuff!

I had a good time at ours too....and proud of myself....no yarn but think I
have completed my needle collection, one lady was selling 5 inch dps they
were cheap $4.95 so picked up sizes 1,2 and 3....started a new pair of socks
on the 2's, they are bamboo and a very light color, never heard of the brand
ChiaoGoo. Oh and lots of alpacas.....a beautiful redbrown with her 1 month
old baby.....she was soooo cute and soft.

I wish I could've found such a needle bargain! Everyone wanted way too
much for them, or else they were out of the size I was looking for.
Sigh. But yeah, adorable llamas, alpacas, and angora bunnies.

My Granddaughter would love the two of you. Pink fingering yarn and
size 1,2 and 3 needles. I still don't have her pink socks finished.

I got busy knitting and crocheting for the homeless in Rockford, IL and
kind of set it to the side.

Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail

for socks.....rosewood is my fave but too pricy so these were a steal ;-)

Yes Donna,
My granddaughter Ava, is 4 and pink crazy. I know what you mean. Isn't
it great to have some one that loves you so much and wants you to knit
and crochet for them.
