Congratulations!!! Great work! A wonderful "Red ribbon" awaits for Melissa and her amazing scarf!

All the pigs were dreaming away, we looked for "Charlotte". Never found her.

The sheep was a little scared...

Just another day at the Fair!Say hello to Bubba...

One Of My Favorites

Here she is...TA DA. All pinned up and ready to show! My first entry in the Skagit County Fair. It's great being a knitter.

Melissa (and our new
friend Karen on her left.) Knitting
away, I think I watched the game
for a total of 5 min. cause we had
famous knitters to meet, booths to shop
oh yeah... and food to eat!

KNITWIT PRINCESSES

THANKS TO CARRIE(KNITWITTIEST) FOR HAVING A BIRTHDAY. (SEE HER SASH?)

JUST PART OF THE FESTIVITES FOR THE DAY!

Entry Day

a semi-sleepless night ~ it will be hard to let them go for a few days....
glad my partner in crime is doing this with me today ~ another fun adventure!

eta: that wasn't as hard as I thought ~ actually ended up volunteering to do a shift on Saturday watching over everyone's entries ~ here's a few more pics from today (hopefully Kelli will share hers later since I didn't get a great pic of her amazing entry ~ it's the gold shawl behind me in my photos)....

Stitch n Pitch 2010

what a blast ~ the boss was nice & gave me the day off so the gals could make a day of it ~ celebrated our sister-in-law's birthday as well ~ we were first in line at the gate and got our Mariner Moose knitting bobbleheads and a few other free items at the vendors' booths ~ spent some of this year's knitting budget also but not too much ~ met some nice folks and made a new friend (karenrc on Ravelry) who made the trek up from Portland on the train ~ our new connection for info on Portland yarn shops for a future road trip ~ the day was a hoot from beginning to end .... can't wait for next year
