The first would have been good exercise and a nice bike ride. The second, a reward for the big bike ride last weekend and a morning surrounded by yarn.
In the end, it was not hard to choose. The sudden cold weather and rainy skies, combined with the lure of all things knitting, made the decision even easier. And now my yarn-buying diet is over. Although, given that I had to travel an hour to get to Kitchener, could I lump the purchase under the category of travel yarn buying? A bit of a stretch.
I didn't go too crazy. Just a few skeins, one sweater quantity, a couple of sets of needles and two really nice bags from Alison Ruth Designs. And I prevented myself from buying more than four balls of Silk Garden. I was able to show Rae from Stix & Stones my Foolproof from her knit-a-long. And hi to Gail and Susan who I saw in line at opening and then never again. Hopefully they had as much fun as I did. What am I saying, of course they had as much fun as I did. Who wouldn't?

Hey Janet!! It was great to see you (briefly!) int eh line-up too!! Had a great time at the Knitter's Frolic too, and was relatively well-behaved with just four balls of Mrs. Crosby going home with me (okay... and a yarnbowl, but technically it wasn't yarn!) We're still doing knit night on Thursdays if you'd care to join us! Happy Knitting!
