Stitches West
A super fast wrap-up before I start my 12 hour work/school day (yay!):
Stitches West was awesome!!! I definitely want to go again and again and again. And Stitch and Ride was awesome too! They gave us a cute tote bag and a cool little sewing kit:
Aunt Bettie and I had gone to the local yarn store the day before, so thankfully my yarn desires were satiated. I don’t know how I could have chosen yarn at the convention. There was sooo sooo soo much yarn everywhere. I think it took us 4 hours to check out the whole convention once, and then another 2 and a half to make our second round. It was so neat!
I had my heart set on notions. There were a few vendors selling vintage beads. I bought some cool wooden toggles and a clasp for a future cardigan, cute wooden beads with flowers on them for a future baby girl project, and really cool leather beads for a future baby boy project.
I also bought a circular needle organizer, which couldn’t have happened at a better time. Just the day before I had spread my whole circ stash out on the table.
I got a lot of knitting done on the train, but I’ll have to show you that later - gotta jet - have a great day!

How fun! Sounds like heaven!!
I’m so glad you had a great time! You look happy in that pic of you. And a backpack? Smart thinking!
The sewing kit is adorable.
Have a good day…even though it’s long and no doubt very busy!
Sounds like such a blast!! You look fabulous, too!
By the way, I got the hat and I LOVE it! I’ll do a blog post about it when I can get my head together. Assuming that I can. :)
