Combined for the first time in one post, a sheep & wool festival, Hayes, and two spots in the upcoming Men’s Knitting Retreat!  A rare combination.

Sheep & Wool

It has become an annual tradition for the past few years that Hayes comes to my area of the world.  We attend the NJ Sheep & Wool festival (technically it’s the Garden State Sheep Breeders Sheep & Fiber Festival).  We look at sheep.  Then we buy wool and wool-related items.  Finally we go somewhere local for lunch.

But mostly, we gab.  Hayes and I have advanced degrees in gabbing.

There are some people who make me smile just at the thought of them.  Hayes is one of those people. If you know him only virtually, he’s even better in person.

Here are some of the sheep we saw:

Here is what I purchased:

Men’s Knitting Retreat

We had two last-minute cancellations for the September 26th-29th Men’s Knitting Retreat at Easton Mountain.  If  you know any guy or guys who would like to attend, send them our way.

Current Knitting

Finally, I’ve failed at my goal of trying to finish the See Grass Shawl, so I’ve tried to gussy up the photos by including pretty petunias.

I also did no additional knitting on the Scrappy Biased Scarf project.  In my lame defense, Hayes is quite gabby
