Those are great new yarns that Teyani has - I won some Great Balls of Fire from her. Have a good weekend.

Sounds like a fun night! When I go to Estes with Margene et al Bakerina is cooking for us. How cool is that? Have a good weekend.

Train? Train? What about the car? Felix and I are driving from Philly to RI today, and we've (I've) never been so happy about the Tappan Zee Br. in my life. Congratulations - and good luck with it.

The socks looks great!

Can I say it again? I had such a stone cold groove hanging out with you and Ann and Wendy and all the other knitterinas last night. Thank you again for being such a kind and welcoming soul, and for not bopping me over the head for my continued mutterings of "dammit, I broke the shawl again." We really must do it again soon. I'll bring snacks. I mean, oshes.

And I meant to tell you last night that your socks are fabulous. My manners failed me utterly last night, thanks to my fretting over the shawl. Stupid fretting.

Have a grand weekend!

Cara, I was very happy to meet you in the "flesh", as it were, and I was enabled by you as well to head on over to the website and garner some of that incredible sock yarn ... Pink Cadillac was my choice -
best, blogless m

Thanks Cara for introducing me to a new yarn...... It really is beautiful.

My husband and checkbook DO NOT thank you, but I do :-)

Sounds like you had a great day! I love the rustic-y stripes as well! Their beautiful!

I am so completely delighted that you are enjoying this yarn! thank you.

Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun! I also love the socks. Nothing like knitting with handspun- it's soooo lovely. :)

what gorgeous yarn! And beautiful stripes! :) have a great weekend!

Another yarn I must try. Love the way its working up and the rustic quality of the yarn. I'm stuck at home with a very sad, hurting puppy (surgery yesterday) so I'll be knitting all day! Enjoy the kiddos.

Thanks so much for the Sock Hop tip. I ordered some yesterday and I believe Teyani assured me that it is winging its way to my ever-growing sock yarn collection.

I am an addict and you've enabled me to continue the trend :-}

I called this morning and ended up having the nicest conversation with Teyani. What a gem and I can't wait for my yarn!

Those socks are gorgeous!

that yarn is so pretty! i may have to get some of that next pair of socks. heck forget SSS, i cant get thru the first one! :D

Cara, i finally did it :-) but i know i've got to work on.. i'm trying though.. any advice i would be so happy:-) thanks karola
ps tell me about the car.. darn i'm sorry i missed last nite.. still on crutches from the surgeries.. yup plural.. stuck at home more than i want to be.. maybe i'll post about all of that mess.. ugh.. anyway i love reading your posts and i'm still gaga over the water on your vacation and i love the squares so who cares what anyone else says.. hee..hee.. karola

The socks are looking great!

Yummy! It reminds me a bit of chcolate covered cherries!

It seems you, Ann and Kay are women of my own heart. I LOVE Purl, Purl Patchwork and Once Upon a Tart. I can't go into one without stopping into the other.

Wow! That sock yarn is nice! I'm loving the tweedy stripe.

And your squares would make a great screen saver! I want to knit everything I see, but alas, I only have two hands, and too much to knit now.

Way, way, way, WAY too much fun without me! ; )

Have a great weekend, too, Cara! Can't wait to hear all about it.

Great yarn! There coming along nicely... Love those photos of the beach!! Perfect! WOOOOOOHOOOOO!

The socks look great. Nothing beats knitting socks with handspun yarn!

That yarn is gorgeous!!! I'm not surprised you're in love!

blah blah socks blah blah barber pole blah blah handspun blah blah SQUARES UNDER UMBRELLA WHAT A FLIPPIN GREAT PICTURE IS THAT?????????????? blah blah blah

I was pretty much skimming until I got to that picture. Also the yarn on the table on the beach looks like a Granny Smith apple.

LOL about laughing being on the Core Program. Note it's not doing me any good in the program department, but I'm laughing anyway. It appears to be doing ANN good. xox Kay

I still think you need to come out here for our little Estes Park Wool Market. It's not as fabulous as Rhinebeck or MS&W, but we have mountains and Bakerina is going to cook for a knitter's party. Margene will be there. You know you want to. Round up Ann and come see us.

I wanna see those car pictures.

I'm with Snow - come to Estes! It'll be great fun. What kind of car did you get? What color? You can't tease us like that.

It was great to meet everyone at the Point Friday night. And now that you told me about lifelines, I have started knitting Wendy's fabulous shawl. If I get my blog up and going again, I'll post a picture.

I would have never thought that yarn would knit up like that - it has so much texture in the ball! Thanks for the beautiful pictures of your socks!
