Needles & Hooks

My plane landed at 5:30am local time. Although I got a lot of sleep on the plane (I had a whole row to myself to stretch out in), I came home and slept for hours. Then I started unpacking. I have a ton of photos and a ton of stuff to tell you about. Far too much for one post, so I’ll break it up across days.

Right now, I’m sitting in my new t-shirt and processing all the photos and composing the posts you’ll read over the next few days. And then I’m gonna grab some of my new yarn and go knit. Despite taking two classes, bringing lots of projects with me, and being surrounded by more yarn than anyone could knit in a lifetime, I didn’t get to do a lot of actual knitting myself!

So, while I write posts, you can think about joining the Rockin’ Sock Club and look at my new shirt:

For those drooling over this card….

I didn’t realize they didn’t have the Club details on the website.
