Rhinebeck 2011
The air was crisp and carried all the old wonderful and sentimental scents of fall on it's many gusts and howls; apple cider, pumpkin pie, and the cooking smells of some hearty, savory delight.
Photographs taken by my surprisingly eager and interested husband, Brian:
Me with Sabina, who is wearing her beautifully hand knitted Delancey Cardigan. She did a lovely job and I sepecially like her color choices. She was delightful, and I'm so happy I ran into her!
The sheep were fascinating and sometimes hilarious!
Laura and Mehgan holding an angora rabbit. What fun!
An alpaca parade! Go ahead, say it out loud. ALPACA PARADE! ALPACA PARADE! If it doesn't make you smile, I don't want to know you.
I had the best time at the sheep and wool festival! You can bet on seeing me there again next year.

over 13 years agoHi Judy! It was super fun. I'm glad you noticed my outfit, because I'm decked-out in all my original designs. In that picture, I'm wearing one of my newest designs, the Georgina Cardigan, my Miss Myrtle Mitts, and the Gowanus Shawl. All three patterns are available for sale here at Knitdarling ;)

over 13 years agoI was so sad to miss out on all the wool festivals this year, so this post brought a spark of happy woolly energy to me! So. Much. Fun. And beautiful photos, even in the flat gray light. What kind of camera do you use?

over 13 years agoThanks, I'm glad I could share all my wooly fun! My camera is a Panasonic GF1. It takes such great pictures. I would recommend it to anyone (especially if you're not a natural photographer like me) because the pictures always turn out so cool looking.
