I’m off to San Diego to go to market. Well, I will be if the fog ever clears so my flight can take off. I get to visit with my mother for a few days before the trade show starts, and then I get to take classes with some of my favorite teachers — Valentina Devine, Brandon Mably and Shannon Oakey.
It’s always exciting seeing this vast hall filled with yarn, and a bit overwhelming too. I learned early on that the only way to conquer the feeling of overwhelmedness (is that a word?) was to have a plan and a budget. So I come armed with statistics and wish lists and a budget and I usually do pretty well.
Speaking of wish lists, if there’s something you’d like to be able to find at Yarn Expressions, let me know. This is the perfect opportunity for me to look for it. I’ll try to post from San Diego, and maybe even share a few pictures.
See you when I get back!

Check out Maggi’s Linen, my new boyfriend yarn-wise. I am itching to cast on with a tobacco brown I found in Omaha.
(Me again. Restless commenter.)
Check out Amy Singer’s new book… No sheep for you and see what cool yarn might go with a spring/summer sweater from her book. Looking forward to seeing this one. Also would love to see some more Noro yarns like Garden Silk.
