Knitting everywhere!
In the past few months while I've been neglecting my blog, I moved to a new apartment. I've also been knitting all over!
I went on vacation for just over 2 weeks - the longest since I started at my job nearly 4 years ago! - in Boston and NYC, and to Rhinebeck. It was great to see some of my Boston knitting friends, including attending the wedding of one of them. I got to visit Gather Here, a new knitting and sewing shop in Cambridge MA, and a bunch of NYC yarn stores. And, of course, there's Rhinebeck!
I was really bad at remembering to take pictures, but here are a few highlights:
I visited the Statue of Liberty!

I went to Brooklyn General - my new favorite NYC yarn store - and La Casita, where I was advised to go to the Brooklyn Farmacy and try an egg cream, so I did.

I finished the lovely Rikke hat in DIC Everlasting DK:


After a few days in NYC I headed to Rhinebeck, where I ate yummy creme brulee in a restaurant named Arielle!

I saw lots of yarn and sheep at Rhinebeck, though I didn't take pictures. I also watched the Leaping Llamas competition! And I managed to finish a shawl I've been working on (or not really working on) for a long time. But it still needs to be blocked, so you can see it next time.
Also next time, the story of how I went to Knit Fit here in Seattle and didn't take even one picture.
