MDSW 2008 Round Up - Picture Heavy

I am terribly late blogging about MDSW, and since Ann did an excellent write-up herself here, I'll just share the spoils of the day.

Row 1: Indie hand-dyes: Woolarina, C*EYE*BER Fibers, and Brooklyn Handspun, all procured from the Cloverhill Yarns booth; Fibre Company Terra in Cochineal (50% off, y'all!), Dancing Leaf Farm Handspun
Row 2: Fibre Company Road to China (did I mention 50% off?), Brooks Farm Acero, Spirit Trail Fiberworks Toci

Handspun thrummed mitten kit by Stefania


I got some Socks that Rock, but I didn't wait in line to get it. I left that to Ann.
STR Lightweight Rare Gems Colorway, a prize hand delivered by Jenna!

The best part, of course, was getting to spend the day with Ann, my co-blogger, sister-in-fiber, and dear, dear friend.

great finds! it's been interesting to read everyone's write ups about MDSW. The impression that I got was that the get-together was what it was all about and there were horrible lines for everything. I'd love to make it some year.

I love your friendship with Ann. I love that you two blog together. It makes me cherish my girlfriends a little bit more.

Yea... love love love! Cheezy love. :)

As I told Ann yesterday, I was thrilled to meet you both! Loved the skirt, Liz, and you got some great yarns too!

I have no idea how I missed you! And we didn't run into each other at the Fibre Company booth either!

Great finds, lady. I also hit that Fibre company booth hard - the yarns were too gorgeous to resist! I was so glad we got to meet and I hope you enjoy your rare gems.

OOH you had some fun!

Nice that you had a hand delivery of STR. It's the only way to go.

Glad you got to spend the time with Ann. Friends are priceless!
