snb yarn swap

susan hosted another great yarn swap for our stitch n' bitch group this past sunday. amazingly (yay!), i left with less yarn, which is excellent (another thing this weekend i never thought i'd say). one way or another, i'm whittling down my yarn stash, and since little knitting is happening lately, this was opportune.

i'm not a big cotton knitter, but i liked the colors on the all seasons cotton (iceberg) and mission falls 1824 (magenta) i picked up, and was thinking i could make dishcloths for christmas gifts.

rhonda brought sophie, who was quiet and sleepy/sleeping most of the time, so there was plenty of oohing and awwing at her little cuteness. much knitting was done, though not by me. i was a bit distracted and spent the whole time trying to cast on a new scarf, and in the end decided, the yarn i had was too thin. the time just flew by! a nice way to wind down after pigging out on chocolate all morning.
