WOOL 2010

What a weekend I had. I went up to Lake George, to Wiawaka Holiday House for WOOL, the spinning gathering put together by Tina.
Wonderful. Simply put, it was just what I needed. There was no pressure, no feeling left out. There was laughter and tears. It was really amazing.
I drove up and met Tamara of Spincerely Yours. Check out what she made for me as a thank you for driving! It's my very own colorway!!

She sells her stuff on etsy. Seriously, this stuff is delish and I know for a fact that she's a sweetheart who only makes the best stuff for your wheel!

I made new friends, got to know old friends a bit better, and was reminded once again how magical Lake George is to me.

I came home to a clean house (my mother in law stayed for a few days to help out Hubs. That woman is a saint) and the family happy to see me. The Baby wouldn't let me put him down. So cute.

Here's what I ended up with at the end of the long weekend:

Well worth it.

That looks like a lovely weekend. I love getting together with my spinning group. Something about the wheels going round and round makes for such great conversation!

Thank you for coming! It was wonderful to meet you, and I'm thrilled that you had a good time. I definitely hope you'll consider coming again.

I had no idea we shared so much in common, getting to know you was a true pleasure. Love the jammies. :P

And yay! Your own personal colorway! How cool is that?

Spinning takes us back to the good old times when we had time and the feeling of the thread in our hands!
