Rhinebeck 2017

I'm still recovering from it.  Here are some pictures though.


The view from the window of our hotel room.  We ended up staying in Times Square.  This is 40th Street.


We took Amtrak from Penn Station to Rhinecliff.  Here is a shot of the outside in the early morning.  Our train left at 7am.


A view of the Hudson River from the train.  It was a 2 hour train ride and a short cab ride from Rhinecliff.


This is the Mulberry Street entrance.  We are waiting in line to get our tickets.  It didn't take long to get in.


A view from the Fair while it was early and not so packed.  After 12pm, it was crazy full.


This is me and Kathy.  I'm the grey hair one.


 Random shot at the Fair before it got busy.


Another random shot at the fair.


We were gathering in a circle for our Stitch Marker Swap on the Hill.


Basically my fiber haul.  Not shown is the sock blank and bag I got.


I went back before catching the cab to grab these 2 dk weight yarns.  I want to make the Fade Cardigan.


Picture of the Stitch Marker Swap.  I have so many nice stitch markers now.


A view of Times Square.

There is a Story to This Shawl

 
 
This is my Pale Thoth.  My pattern page:  http://www.ravelry.com/projects/AtPlayWithFiber/thoth  Pattern page:  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/thoth  I needed to have this knit for Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival.  See I met Anna Dalvi at Rhinebeck 2012 and at MSWF 2014.  I got her to sign the 2 books I have of hers.  
 



You see I added another book to my collection.  The problem was that I hadn't knitted any of the patterns from the books.  So I need to change that before I saw her again this weekend.  I'm going to get her to sign my copy of Mystic Shawls.
