I know, I haven’t talked about knitting much lately. Know why? I haven’t been knitting. I knit a few rows last week at the ATC meeting, and a few rows when I was in Austin back before the 4th of July. That is it. How sad is that? This is going to have to change this week, and then I need to get a project or two ready to take with me on our upcoming vacation. But before that, I will be driving to Austin at the end of the week to see the Yarn Harlot. Wheee! And really, I can’t head off to do that without a sock in hand. I was going to try to finish my current sock, but since it is the sock that has seen so much action – visiting sights all over London and Texas – I think it needs to meet the Yarn Harlot as I get down to the toe of the sock. Then I can bind off and start the next sock at the Yarn Harlot After Party.
I was feeling a little off today. I think it is the lack of knitting. The serenity of the bedroom helped though. That has been the trade off for my knitting time, obviously. It was a worthwhile trade. Maybe after our vacation I will paint the living room.
Are you coming to Austin to see the Yarn Harlot? Want to join us for the after party? Let me know so I can get you all the details! (I will post them here tomorrow – I have one minor thing to finalize first.)

A bunch of us are coming up from San Antonio — where’s the after party?
You know I’m in!
I’m SO there! I have to be at work at 5, so I’m not sure about the after party, but maybe.
Tina, the Harlot finishes talking at 1pm, so the “after party” is more of an opportunity to eat lunch and socialize. You should be able to make it to work by 5 with no problem!
I’ll be e-mailing details tomorrow and posting here too. Yeah for socializing with knitters!
I can barely contain myself! I have a sock or 3 ready to take. I don’t have all Stephanie’s books yet, I thought I’d buy the last two and have her sign all of them at once. I wonder if that is figured in the 300 max books she would sign? What time are you arriving on Friday? I need to make plans. Counting the days, literally!
I’m very excited! Please let me know all about the after party.
This is awesome! Thanks.
Julia – I don’t know what time Katy can leave; I’ll call her tonight and let you know! Wheee!
Absolutely! I’ll check in tomorrow for the details and look forward to seeing everyone again.
Tschuss.
