Awesome!!!

Occasionally I like, oh lets not kid ourselves I LOVE having knitting visitors.  Lucky for me Mr. Tempted and DD are good with it too.  This past weekend THE Knit Girllls (Laura and Leslie), Sara and Jessica all came to stay.  We had such a great time together.  An incredible amount of fiber was spun and yarn knitted but most of all there was a whole lot of laughter and fun.

The first evening everyone was here we had the most amazing summer rain that cooled everything down enough that we could really enjoy the deck.  I am so amazed at how much knitting got done this weekend.

Now doesn't this look like a good time?  I have been acquanted with all of these girls for 3 years but this weekend we really got to know eachother. First thing we learned is that Jessica loves guacamole.  I think I might have overplanned the food because day 2 the only cooking that was done was breakfast quiche and yarn/fiber dyeing.

Day 2 included a whole lot of spinning!  We all had our wheels and it was a very relaxing and fun day.  There was just a whole lot of laughing and talking. 

Knitting and spinning have brought me hours and hours of enjoyment, along with warm feet, hands and shoulders.  I have to say that the greatest benefit I have recieved from my years of knitting and spinning is the amazing friendships that I have developed. 

Thanks girls for making the drive and I can't wait to do it again.

I have finally recieved the yarn for theLoopy Ewe and will be dyeing like a mad woman for the next week to catch up.  I will also be preparing for the upcoming Stringtown trunk show on August 14th.  I would love to meet anyone that can make it there.
