Earthtones Girl

This was the sixth year that I’ve attended the festival and it may have been the best.  It wasn’t only because my husband come along, or my mum, dad and sister were there, or the weather was awesome (just a bit to warm for me), or that I bought all the STR colorways I love or that there were many more vendors (food and fiber) then ever before or even that I spent Sunday with a friend who had never attended but a perfect combination of all these things. 

I know, it’s a picture of fog but I couldn’t resist…amazing.  This is on the ride up at 8am.

Yes, that is a giant fork in the road…that we always, always make a wrong turn at…you’d think we’d know the way by now.

Fairground entrance…let the games begin…

 Here’s The Fold…the only place at carries Socks That Rock and the busiest vendor for the day.

Are we all nuts to wait on a line this long…well yeah!! Wouldn’t you?

Isn’t he cute?

That’s his buddy Bandit…who makes the sweetest sounds…

So after some shopping and hanging with animals… I made my way over to the Blogger/Ravelry/Bingo Meetup

And here’s the dynamic duo, Jess and Casey…who have made Ravelry “a place our own”.

More shopping.

Here’s me at the end of day 2…a bit beat, a bit poor but damn happy!!!

There was no sweater wearin’ but the t-shirt was a hit…and I’m proudly sporting my pins.

The perfect end to a perfect weekend.

 I’ll try to get shots of all my purchases up tomorrow.   Like I needn’t more yarn.
