What a weekend!
Tuesday, September 6, 2005 at 10:44AM I had a wonderful weekend. However I am a bad blogger. I took only 1 picture. Have I uploaded it so that others may enjoy...nope. Bad blogger.
Friday - Shannon the dancer from Boston arrives in her Mini with the Princess. These two had an 8 hour drive from Boston because of the horrible traffic. Shannon has requested a cute nickname...We'll get right on that, won't we internets?
Saturday - Ottawa. Yarn Forward in Kanata. Shannon buys yarn and needles and a sock pattern. Wooo Hoooo I have spread the illness. We hike around Parliment and eat sushi. Then it is time for overload in IKEA. Shannon remembers how to cast-on and starts a sock. I am also approached to knit something for the Jody Weber Dance Company's Fundraiser. How cool is that?
Sunday - Lake Placid. Beautiful drive. Shannon completes her ribbing and is now knitting the leg. We have a wonderful picnic in the park...mmmm pate,mmmmm. I then march everyone (including the Princess) across town and up a HUGE hill in order to make it to a yarn shop. There I discover that the Harlot will be appearing on September 26th. Is it stalking to go to a book signing if you have already had your bookbookbook signed? Maybe I'll take the new book and this time I won't have to drive 6 hours. Now lets hope the new book arrives in time....Yarn is purchased (including a few Fleece Artist items) and off we go. I take Shannon to the Lake Placid Brewery. I am ashamed. The Salem Beerworks was soooo much better.
Monday - Shannon departs for Boston. I veg in front of the TV and work on my sleeve for Sitcom Chic.
Edited to Add: Pictures of the Princess
I think Princecss has hung out with a few too many Cats.
No handknitted socks were harmed in this picture. Just some really awful acrylic blends.
