Sheep Gazing

This past Saturday we stopped by the Great Lakes Fiber Show (it's something of a tradition at this point).  I visited with the lovely Bare Naked Wools folks (you should come play in our knitalong, it's the yummiest yarn imaginable).  But other than a few goodies from their booth, I [...]

I should be displaying impressive industry.  There are emails to write, yarns to select, stores to contact, swatches to knit.  In short, there are things to do.  But I regret to inform you that I will be doing none of those things for the next few minutes.  Because there is [...]
