Hmmm … not quite midnight. Can I sneak in a Yarn Pr0n Friday post?
Sure, why not!
Remember this little stinker? Stealing my wallet at the Pittsburgh Knit & Crochet Festival?
Well, I thought I was all done with Brooks Farm on the first day. But then at the end of the day on Saturday, I saw this really cool sideways-knit vest that they had knit up as a sample of their Riata yarn.
I fell in love. First thing on Sunday, RT snuck over there and brought this back to the stash
Two hanks of Brooks Farm Riata.
48% Wool, 36% Kid Mohair, 16% Silk. About 365 yards in each 8-ounce skein
Worsted weight. Very pretty.
I wound the first hank to take to Hurricane Knitters on Wednesday night, but didn’t feel like swatching.
I think that if I make it to MDSW I may trip and fall in the Brooks Farm booth again.
But really. Is that such a bad thing?

You must visit their tent. No booth, tent. It's lovely. Lots of skanks -- er, hanks, lots of colors. Even some sale stuff. And the Tess yarns. You've gotta do that, too.
We can fall down and go boom together! I really hope you can go. I'd love to meet you!
First, that's lovely stuff.
Secondly, YES! Come to MDS&W!!! We can all meet up!!!
I always love the look of the Brooks Farm booth. It's a shame I can't fall into it, what with all that mohair. I just have to be sure that I only fondle the Four Play side!
