Stash Enhancement

Several weeks ago, I went to Good Fibrations in Edgewood with Rebecca and Pam. They were having a sale and we caught the very last day of it. There was much excitement over two rooms full of yarn and books.

I didn't think I would get very much, but there was a lot of good stuff.....

Wool for socks or a hat. Very yummy stuff. The color is much better than in the picture. Andean wool for a neck cowl for fall. It's VERY soft and was quite cheap, too. The color combination is exquisite - brown and purple and blue and bright orange. You wouldn't think it would work, but it really does. This "trekking" yarn reminds me of Neopolitan ice cream, and that is the sole reason I bought it. ha ha sole reason. I am going to make socks with it. My first toe-ups! They will henceforth be known as the "Yummy Ice Cream Socks". After we had enhanced the respective stashes, we headed next door for some yummy Chinese food. Who knew? Edgewood, NM and Chinese food. Wonders never cease.

Last week, Meg came back for a visit and she brought this delicious yarn - Tofutsies. More socks, yay!!!! It has chiton in it, which comes from crustaceans, I believe. It's supposed to be anti-bacterial. All I know is that it is pretty and will make beautiful socks. Thanks, Meg!
