This weekend was so amazing, and it truly went by too fast!!!! It was so great to have Tina, Katie, and Steve here to visit and take part in some pre-wedding festivities!!!
Friday night envolved staying up really late to wait for their arrival. And even though there were a little late getting here, when the arrived … I was like a kid at Christmas!!!! We enjoyed some hot tea and fresh chocolate chip cookies before crashing for the night.
The next day, I took Tina and Katie to The FiberSmyth in Woodstock, Va. This shop is dangerous … I can never go there without coming home with some really great yarn! Her shop is so diverse in it’s selection that you can find a little bit of everything! Here’s what I came away with (minus some yarn for my Summer Swap Pal’s final package.)
Two skeins of Melody Superwash in a great green/teal color and two skeins of Noro Cash Iroha in a soft pink. I’d been eyeing that Noro for a while now, and I just had to grab it up. I’m thinking fingerless mitts, for sure.
Tina also gifted me with a belated birthday present!!! A skein of the new Noro sock yarn, in purple and black. I can’t wait to knit it up!!!
Tonight I started ordering the gifts for my Bridesmaids. Let’s just say that I put a Loopy Ewe order in, enough to get free shipping! Since all of my gal’s knit, I’m getting some interesting things together!
Tomorrow (hopefully) … Bridal Shower Weekend Part II !
It was wonderful seeing you! Steve says you need to live closer, just so you know. And not because you’re not worth the drive.
