Rhinebeck 2008-6

Another Delightful Rhinebeck

It was a little colder this year, but the tree colors were spectacular and the friends even more abundant than in prior years.

Rhinebeck Friends
Mostly, I’ll just show pictures of the event. As usual, the best part of Rhinebeck for me were the people that I get to see.

Also ran into a bunch of other great folks, like Mindy, BJ (of M&M’s fame!), a bunch of guys from the Men’s Spring Knitting Retreat and tons more that my dementia-addled brain isn’t coming up with at the moment.

Current Knitting
I finished sewing up the Fair Isle hat, did minimal work on the microscopic gauge sock and starting swatching for my stranded knitting sweater.

I’ve already reached my quota of pictures, so I’ll post more later this week.
