Thanks! I tried downloading the full brochure on the shop computer
a/k/a the good computer, but it said it was going to take over an
hour. Guess we'll have to wait and be surprised Saturday.

Eight!!! More!!! Days!!!

Hi, Kris.  I'm wondering if many people will know that STR & the other Blue Moon
yarns will be in The Fold's booth...we'll see.  ;)  That's how they started out
at Stitches years ago, you know, in **my** booth!  I do have a pretty good
selection of STR colors, most in Lightweight and Mediumweight.  If you'd like to
send me a list of those you'd be interested in, I'd be happy to pull them off
the display and leave them in a bag for you to look at when you arrive.  Let me
know.  There's also quite a good quantity of other yarns and lots of patterns
available, too.  I'll be intrigued to see how the booth goes together.  See you
this weekend.

Hi Toni,


Your probably going crazy gearing up for Stitches, but wanted to ask you  a
quick question. I noticed Blue Moon Fibers wasn't on the list of vendors this
year, so I checked their website and I see they are actually being represented
by you. You can't believe how happy I am right now. I'm curious to know if
you'll have a big selection? I know several Socks that Rock lovers that will be
happy to hear this news.

Take care and see you at Stitches.
Kris

Hi Aleta

Good luck on Saturday.  I lost the paper with the
donation information and I had to babysit last night
so I couldn't get to Caribou to get it from you let me
know what it is and I'll go right away and donate.

Nevermind I found it through Becca's Blog.  Good Luck and remember to stay
hydrated.

I just found out there's a baby shower next Tuesday for a friend in my
homeschooling group, and I'd really like to knit something for her.

Booties?

Baby Surprise Sweater?

I've never knit a real article of clothing, especially one as a gift.
  Suggestions, please?  Remembering, of course, that it took me two and
a half months to knit my son a pair of socks?  <sheepish grin>

Thanks!

~Nancy

Booties.  Definitely booties.  They are the fastest knit ever.  A pair
of booties takes about 4 hours of knitting time.  Seriously easy, and
always impressive.

Whenever I give a pair of hand-knit booties, I stuff them with cotton
balls so they look "full" and pin them together with a diaper pin.

You can so do this.  :)

I'd stick with booties. Anything else might take too long. You only
have a week!

Google free baby bootie patterns and you'll find plenty of options.

The other possibility would be a bib or baby washcloth. They're also
small projects. They might be easier than booties because they use
less shaping.

Good luck!
Theresa

Hey, sorry I missed you all tonight.  We never did make it to the Imax
HP5 show last week, and ended up going tonight.  It was AWESOME!

Ahem.  Anyway, thanks for all the ideas, and I found out today I
actually have almost TWO weeks as the shower is on the 28th, not the
21st like I thought.  Whew!

Booties it is, and maybe a cap if I have time.  Thanks for all the
ideas and websites and stuff.  With any luck, I'll either be bringing
a finished pair next week, or I'll be working on them...

See you then!

~Nancy

P.S.  Congrats on the 3-day, Aleta -- Becca's picture on you on her
blog was excellent!

Yeah, the two socks on circulars thing?  Too much for my feeble brain
to handle.

I believe I need to split this into two different things:  knitting
some toe-up socks so I can see how they're supposed to work, and THEN
trying two at a time on circulars.

You do NOT want to know what these were looking like after a few
rounds, or after I dropped stitches and re-cast one of them.  However,
I have some very nice two-tone pink ramen now.

P.S. Speaking of train wrecks, did you get your Addi Turbos back?

Theresa, I love my dpn's too -- I just wanted to be adventurous and
try something new.  Ha!

That's a good tip, MB -- I'll remember that if I get my own set of
circulars.  These are borrowed so I can't paint them.

Sorry about your turbos, Kris.  :-(

~Nancy

I love Fulmar.  What weight/yardage is it?  I am so tempted.  I have
wanted to do an Aran for some time.  Maybe if it was a KAL I would
actually start it.  But only if I have stash for it, which I think I
do.

With badges!

Why didn't I think of this?

Becca

You would need between 3000 and 3900 yards of sportweight/DK,
depending on the size you would want to make.

I think we're going to have a good KAL for this. I've sent out some
more invitations today. Interest is stronger than I thought it would
be!
