I’ve been a very social blogger over the past few days.
\nLast Thursday night I spoke to Donni<\/a> on the phone. On Friday, Em and I had coffee with Lynne<\/a>.
\nOn Monday, we visited with Ailsa<\/a>.
\nAnd yesterday, we went to visit Rubi & Lana (at long last!) and Lara<\/a>. We got to meet all of Lara’s beautiful bunnies, and Cocky, too.
\nI had also hoped to go to Canberra this weekend and drop in on Canberra SnB, but alas, it isn’t to be this time around.
\nI had my camera with me at every one of those social visits, and I failed to take it out of my bag even once, sorry.
\nI did get a great deal of the Angora Supreme sweater done at Ailsa’s.

\nI’m very happy with the way it’s working up. I love the way the yarn works up. Here’s a close up of the stitch detail.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nOn my monitor, this colour is pretty accurate. The yarn does have all those little angora fibres that do tend to stick to you, and fly up your nose, but I’m loving the way it feels.
\nI was pretty restrained at Rubi & Lana yesterday. I picked up a ball of On Line 6 ply sock yarn in some pretty vivid greens, for socks for David.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nYes, he likes it!
\nAnd somehow Em conned me into buying her a new knitting bag.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nIt’s pink and<\/em> has frangipani’s. She was in ecstasy.
\nAnd somehow, some lace weight followed me home. Are you all surprised? Come on, everyone knows that lace weight is just like sock yarn. It doesn’t count as stash.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nRed. Rich, rich, ruby red.
\nThis is destined to eventually become the “Heere Be Dragone”<\/a> shawl. Michelle<\/a> did hers in red, and it’s gorgeous<\/a>. I had narrowed it down to three colours – a rich teal green, purple or red, and Rubi & Lana helped out by only having red in stock. That decided me!
\nTwinkie would like to be a ballet bunny. She has a thing for tutu’s, and wants to learn to dance.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nEither that, or she’s trying to trip Em over while she practices her ballet!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
