Maryland
I am sitting my my best friends condo, enjoying her neighbors wireless, and bringing you this fiber-filled blog entry.
I swear this roving smelled like cotton candy!
At the festival:
Me on the left, Laurel on the right.
That's a lot of knitting bloggers, I'm sure people will post far higher quality photos in the coming days. I was a dolt and forgot my batteries for my digi cam, so I used my phone.

I looked for the Pixie Purl buttons or shirts all over the place on Saturday.. of course, it was SO crowded that I could have walked past my own mother three times without seeing her. GREAT day, GREAT weather! I was tempted to sleep over with one of the sheep... Did you check out the hand turned knitting needles from Grafton Fibers? Absolutely awesome! I could resist the Purple Passion circular needles...

Hey, wasn't it great. I was so overwhelmed I had a hard time buying anything. Check out my blog for picts tomorrow. My best picture was a women spinning angora straight from the bunny!! I really wanted to buy those alpacas for sale but I didn't think I could pass them off as big dogs in my town 8~)

Hi Pixie, it was so nice to meet you in person. You are even cuter and sweeter in real life!
Glad you made it home safe and looks like you did really well with your haul :)

I recognized the Tess immediately! I scooped up a ton at Stitches West in February and am making shawls out of the sockweight for my bridesmaids and a shrug for me out of the cult. silk and wool in the same pale blue/pale green colorway you picked out. I smiled when I heard in your podcast that that's your fave colorway, as it's mine too, and I wondered if you'd ever have a chance to see Tess' gorgeous yarns - glad you did! Doesn't it smell wonderful? It's so nice to knit with something that smells good too :) Love your podcast!

Great pix - I would not have guessed that they are from your cell phone. After reading all these blogs about MSW, I am determined to go next year. I am so happy for you that you had such good time and found these goodies ;-) Where is the live podcast from MSW - just kidding ;-) See you soon!

One of these days I'm planning a vacation around one of these events! I'll leave the boys with their Dad, and take my budding yarn snob 5yr old Thumbelina along and have a good ole time!
Your roving is gorgeous, heck, it's ALL gorgeous! I'm jealous out of my gourd! hahahah MOSTLY, I'm just happy for you tho! LOL

I've been reading all about MD$W around the knitblogs. What fun! I'm glad you had a good time, and your yarn haul is fab!
