Edited to add: I have no ide why it's doing this wacky column thing. Silly blog.
Are you wearin' your green? No? PINCH PINCH PINCH!!!! Ok, now stop by the shop and buy some green, I've stocked it well with all shades! The Corned Beef was nummmmmmy from the crockpot (because it's just easier that way)! Alex and I have green on, although the hubs is pinchable. Even the dog has on her shamrock collar! 
We went for a walk earlier, and Alex just had to help with Bella!
So the Show went as well as could be expected due to the economy, the attendence was waaaaay down according to many. I would have of course loved to have sold more, but we can't have it perfect, no? The booth looked lovely, though:
Really, it just means more for you all to buy from the shop! My goal is to do one colorway a week if not more until it is all up.
I've also managed to get a wee bit of knitting done. The Ugly Socks have both cuffs done, and just need a double heel turn. The heel on the second Warm Colors sock is turned and I'm coming down the home streach of the foot. I did have a slight panic whle turning the heel. I LEFT WITHOUT STITCH MARKERS. And I was turning a short row heel. I use the method in Simply Splendid Socks, and you need markers for the while think to make it easy, and I'm all for easy. So what's a girl to go? Go MacGuyver on it! 
What I found on the fly in the car was a straw and a boxcutter. I promptly sliced the straw at 70 MPH while hubby was driving and VOLIA! Stitch markers! Worked just fine on the sock
! The sock has made much progress since then, and is darn close to the toe. I also have a hat almost done for Alex out of some handspun, so there might be two FO's in one week. Watch out for the flying monkeys!!
Was this the show in Riverside last month? I wanted to go and buy up all the wool but my 2 year old spread all the bad germs around!
