joys of making
yesterday, we all took a ride to the santa clara convention center to attend the annual stitches west market. this is an annual conference and market which i first attended last year.
ahhhhh.... so many things to look at and to buy.... i was exhausted by the time we went through all the booths. i picked up some more fantastic sock yarns (maybe they'll be gifts, maybe they'll be for me), a great deal on noro silk garden, miscellaneous books, some tools and some patterns.
joy mentioned that i hadn't posted my completed poncho, so here it is, along with some other things as well.
