What did I buy at Rhinebeck? I wish I could've buy more, but hey, yarn budget. We all know what it's like. I'm usually a buyer with a purpose, and having none on site, I decided to stay logical: fingering or lace weight yarn that can be knit into so many things.
I laid my hands on a skein of Blue Moon Fiber Arts Socks That Rock heavyweight in the Swamp Goblin colorway. A generous 198g/350yds skein, enough for a nice, long pair of socks.
I discovered MissBabs' "Yummy Monochrome" sockweight yarn and couldn't help but buy one skein in beachglass colorway. Another pair of socks, I suppose?
The last skein (yes, only three skeins...) was a real surprise. I went to their stand at least four times. I just couldn't decide. At last, I fell in love with a skein of Mocha's Fiber Design Lita Laceweight yarn, 80% Extrafine Merino/20% Silk in the Lauren colorway. Love love love her yarn.
All three are so pretty, but I really love that laceweight!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous! I wish I could have gone! It looks like you got wonderful things.
ReplyDeleteNice yarn pron! Sorry I missed you at Rhinebeck. It was a hug fest for me as I'm sure it was for you too.
ReplyDeleteOh that lace is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou managed not only to pick the nicest weights but the BEST colors!! <3
ReplyDeleteVery lovely acquisitions! I also scored with Miss Babs. BUT HERE"S MY QUESTION .... where did you find Blue Moon? They weren't listed as vendors. I am so sad that I missed them!
