Not Knitting
Well, the title is a little misleading. See, I'm knitting right now (well, until I started typing) and I knit tons over the weekend, but yesterday was the only day in recent memory where I didn't knit at all. And I had fun too! Yesterday was all about the music, but that is a story for another time.
First off, SPA: Saturday morning Cathy picked me up very early - getting up before 6:30am on a Saturday is somewhat wrong. We headed up to Freeport and were able to check into our room early - and may I say that the staff at the Hilton Garden Inn were super nice! We dropped off our coats and commenced with the shopping.
It was a lot more crowded than that, the picture was hastily snapped on Sunday when I realized that I hadn't taken any pictures all weekend. I bought some beautiful sock yarn and fiber, but we'll save that for later when it's been photographed.
The weekend was fabulous but low-key, just a lot of knitting and sitting in hot tubs and Starbucks and even some shopping at LL Bean. I found the cutest Merrell Mary Janes to wear with handknit socks in the outlet.
On the way home we stopped in Ogunquit to get an OGT sticker. See, once I saw one in my neighborhood and was convinced it was about Tool and thus determined to find one. Then someone more knowledgeable about the northeast told me it was for Ogunquit - perhaps that was Cathy too? In any case I am thinking that maybe other people won't know that and will figure out it's for Tool. Or maybe I'm just nuts. But it was a gorgeous day and the beach looked lovely in the snow:
The BFF socks are almost done - I've vowed to finish them before the end of February and I'm going to make it!

That must have been fun. I used to love going to freeport when I went to school up there.
hahaha i LOVE that you got an OGT sticker. (you DID find one, didn't you?) that's fantastic.
I don't care what it's really for, I want that sticker!
Looks like you had a great time. That picture says it all. Spinning wheels, yarn, heaven.
