Stichery West

Stitches West was held in March at the Santa Clara convention center. For those who are unfamiliar, this event is held annually and it is the knitters yarn smorgasbord!
Kellie and I attended and from the moment we arrived we walked around the hall like little kids @ a candy store. I won't mention how much each of us spent that morning but let's just say we're both stocked for premium yarns for well over the next year. There were literally hundreds of patterns, yarn spinning, kits, sock yarns, quivot (for those of you like me who didn't know, this is super soft wool from ox, it only cost what...$30/2 oz.!) It was my first time @ the convention and I though I'd died and woken up in yarn heaven! I tell you it was just exhausting feasting your eyes on the many different types of yarn and samples of clothing folks had knitted. At the end of the day Kellie and I were so hungry from this fest that we headed over to the best sough Indian food spot not far from the convention center and that was equally fantastica!!!!
