Since it is April 1st also known as Flash your stash day. I pulled out some of the stash (I left it to strictly sock yarn b/c well I am a crumby photographer and couldnt figure out how to take a pic of the rest so…

Getting ready for Passover at chez Suburbaknitsta involved a trek to the local meat market . Holy cows ( I am not above a cheesy butcher pun) it was soo ridiculously busy I was incredibly glad to be armed with my traveling sock. I actually turned the heel standing on line there. This other lady gave me a knowing glance and whipped out a booty she was working on. I think she and I may have scared a few muggles while standing there… I am only sorry that I didnt take my camera with me so I could have taken a pic of this adorable little baby bootlet out of cashmere (drool) More later
-D

The Harlot make me wanna sing Mary Poppins?? Knitters in large numbers … what a sight to see. I took my bus (with the icky driver) to Port Authority got Farblungit ( i cant translate from Yiddish sorry) took me to long but I finally arrived at my destination. (actually Kim found me and brought me where I needed to go) Once upon a Tart was quite the pleasant eatery with the coolest duckie thing in the window oh and btw soup involving peas,spinach, and mint is awesome!! Then I hit Purl…(thanks Ina for providing the contrast, my photography skills leave much to be desired) omg I think I wanna move in there. Wow for a tiny store they have a heck of a lot. The wall of koigu made me wanna drool yet I bought none. I did buy some new exclusive to purl Lorna’s sock yarn… Then we made our way to FIT. Where I took the same photo as countless others I am sure… SPM spoke for about an hour and a half and then took questions (which were actually comments) What kind of blew my mind was all the people knitting like a giant SnB and not just knitting, there was a common goal (afghan squares). Stephanie touched on the kindness of knitters which was so evident in all the money collected to Doctors without Borders. Got to meet a fellow Jersey girl, waving to Jessica. All in all had a fabulous day which has been described much better by others… Suffice to say I can’t wait for the next knitter meet up… Photos from the day below
