Yarn on the Go
We played D&D and knit while that was happening. We also went to Wolsely Wool and and bought yarn for stuff. Jocelyn got some self-striping holiday sock yarn from Dye for Ewe in My Kind of Holiday Baking. Diana got some Cascade Lana Grande in colour #6040 (grey) and a giant faux fur pom pom to make her friend a hat for when she gets back from Australia.
Fibre Flubs
Un-flub: Jocelyn’s lost shawl came home!
Diana was finishing up the last grey mitten, lost yarn chicken by a thumb.
