I'm not stressed, really

First the knitting, I have been doing a little (really big) knitting.
I mean this bag (Noni Medallion travel bag) is going to be HUGE! Unfelted it is 36" wide and 27" deep, I am a little over half way through with it and hoping to have it finished by the Spring Fling. I am also working on my 'Linear' sweater because I would love to be able to wear it to the Trunk Show in 2 weeks. OMG ......... what on earth am I gonna wear! Seriously people, I dye yarn that means that most of my clothes are spotted with dye. I almost never go anywhere that I can't go wearing my "work" clothes (small town and all). I actually had to talk to my baby sister, the fashion diva of the family, and I have decided that it isn't easy to dress for knitting events. If I let my sister dress me for the Trunk Show I will look very professional but not like someone who spends her days elbow deep in dye. But.... if I dress myself ...... well it will be jeans splattered with dye and a tank top with every color of the rainbow and a few that aren't in the rainbow. OK I need HELP! Feel free to leave a message and tell me how to dress for this occasion.
I am not stressed, really! Of course I did had this crazy dream last night,
there was a dictator and when I started getting everything I had dyed out it was all missing and in it's place was a bunch of fun-fur and rick-rack. OK so maybe I am a little overwhelmed, just a little, or at least my brain is.
I have about 80 skeins of Good Grrl dyed in a huge variety of colors and dyeing techniques and once I get the delivery of Glam on Monday, I will get a bunch of the Glam dyed up too. I have also dyed several skeins of Lace wt and roving, I am not really sure what everyone is expecting so I am throwing in everything. My only concern is that no one is disappointed, I brought out a bunch of old faves and few new yarns too, including the 'Iris' colorway that Wendy used in a recent pattern. I am excited about the trip and getting to meet a bunch of new knitting friends.
Hi Stacy, It was so good to meet you at SWAK in the City Saturday. I went back over your entire sold ETSY shop and could not even find the purple I was looking for. Could I have imagined it? Possiblymaybe dreamed it. I would like a light to medium/dark purple. Not heather though, in a sock weight. Your colors are amazing I could have had one of each and gone home a happy camper. I am doing a Gust scarf using the Emergency colorway. It is turning out beautiful!! Thanks for sharing your talent.
HEY I LOVE YOUR WEBSITE! THANKS SO MUCH FOR LUNCH!
Take a look at the Yarn Harlot's blog, to see what people are wearing to knitting events! Love that Noni bag--I have the pattern, but probably won't ever get around to actually knitting it.
