Oregon Flock and Fiber 2009

Well I forgot to take my camera this year, so I don't really have any pictures, I have one or two from my phone, but I'm not real sure on the quality, I might load them on here later though. Anyhow it was wonderful, I got to wander through the barns and play with the bunnies.

I also got some awesome yarn, though I really tried to restrain myself as Sock Summit was only a month and a half ago, and my yarn bin is still over flowing.

BMFA Stash!

These are the delectable skeins of wonderfulness that I picked up from the Blue Moon Fiber Arts booth. On the right are STR medium weight mill ends so the colorways are my best guess, the top one I think is Korppi, Autumn, ST-2, and Froggin. The center purple one is a Seduction Rare Gem, and beside that BFL Sport in Downpour(this one is also a guess because it's not labeled).

After Blue Moon I only had enough left to pick up these beauties from Frog Creek Fibers.

FCF Stash!

The skein on top is Ebullient in the Blue Diablo XL colorway, the lower skein is Bamboo Blend in the Blue Bonnet colorway.

I really wanted some of the yarns from Abstract Fiber but I resisted. At some point in time though the Black Opal, Manzanita, Laurelhurst, and Sweet Pea colorways will be mine.

I'm also seriously considering camping out at the fair grounds next year I think it would be fun to take one of the workshops, and just kind of hang out at the festival for the weekend. I may even wander around Canby and it's not that far from Willsonville or Woodburn for that matter if I felt like getting in some non-knitting shopping.
