Well Hurrican Ivan (ehem.. tropical storm) created an actual waterfall in my backyard! A 4 inch wide stream of water travled down our hill creating a 30 foot long pool of water curving around the whole entire back side of our house and then streaming down a 4 foot wide "river" it created in between ours house and the one next door.

With no internet and no access to Fair Isle 101 I was left to do things on my own. So being anxious I went ahead.. even though I probably should have waited. The yarn was so.. so.. wonderful. It knits up so nicley. Very thick and nice. I like it better then silk garden, though that's nice to. Here is a shot of my Sisik colorway.

Here is a sad little swatch created by someone who has no clue about fair isle and was working in candle-light.

I went over the Fair Isle 101 and learned lots today about floats and weaving, throwing and picking. If I have internet at home I'll try to do it correctly!
