Happy Saturday, everyone!
Today is going to be a fibery day. At 3:00 I'm going to the PINS meeting (Purple Iris tearoom Needleworking Society). Daye is coming, and I'm bringing Maria along for the first time. I think she'll love it! I expect to see some more familiar faces from my old school. Jean, the organizer, has been spreading the word, and she's found some potential members. It's always a blast to be sharing new projects and seeing what everyone else is doing. I'll bring my Creatures of the Reef shawl (I'm now on row 36!). But because it takes too much consentration, I won't work on it there. I will probably start my first Fixation socks. I've got a purple/pink ball I can't wait to begin.

Last weekend Daye and I went to Dahlonega to sit and knit and spin. It was a lot of fun even though the temps were in the mid-upper 80s! There were six or so spinners, a weaver, a couple of us using drop spindles, and Daye was knitting. We went to Magical Threads beforehand, and I bought the Fall 2001 pattern book from Adrienne Vittadini and some Araucania pink wool to make a sweater from the book. So much yarn, so little time...
