We didn't have much time at the Festival, because we forgot about the time change. So, my purchases were modest. The yellow is Blackberry Ridge 100% wool, that will become a cabled cardigan. The brown is 100% alpaca, 660 yards from a little animal named Pronto. It's undyed! I have a little lacy scarf in mind for that. I was surprised to find out that an alpaca could be purchased there for not very much money, about the same you might pay for a dog, and they live about 25 years. The Man was pretty interested in alpacas. Could there be a little alpaca farm in our future? I would like it, I think. The other picture is a little goat that liked the camera.

Such great restraint. I bought an odd bunch of things. (I'm now questioning a few of them, but I was in the moment!) The camping wasn't bad. I did meet some nice people. The project using the Rovings purchase looks great! Can't wait to see it finished.
After the gluttony of Stitches, I needed a little restraint. I've got to knit this stuff! I was also sort of embarassed to show my Man how much I could purchase, left to my own devices.
