The Fair, the Sweater and the WIPs

This weekend was full and relaxing at the same time. Saturday was spent at the Puyallup fair. Not really my type of thing but I did come away with some hand-dyed sock yarn- as if I didn't have enough! We spent a good 6 hours there and were ready to be away from people by the end of the day. We did see the Seahawks dance squad perform and from that I learned that no matter how many mistakes you make, smiling and tossing hair hair around will make up for it. I think I will try that today at work.

The knitting display at the fair featured a Clapotis and Lizard Ridges. Someone there checks our Knitty.

Sunday was more of a domestic day- knitting, baking a pecan pie, making some soup, knitting, watching football, knitting. I finished the EPS sweater and just have the steeks left to do. I hear procrastination beating down the door. I am really nervous about this, not so much the cutting but making sure the sewing is done correctly first. After finishing the sweater, I started working on both the Mix and Mingle throw and the socks that have been on my needles for about a month. I would love to finish my WIPs before starting something new. A girl can dream right?
