It was great! Amazing! (Did I mention I'm tired?) I'm going to put
as many pictures and links in here as I can because I know I'll
forget to mention someone's gorgeous yarns or wares...I'll try to
catch up on the next 'Cast, though! OH! But checkout The Blue Ridge Soap Shed esp. the Hand Repair
Soap in "Green Tea". Also Cheryl Brunette's Sweater
101 and Chrissy
Gardiner's Toe
Up! (soon-to-be incentive
books).
And now for some pictures! Laser-cut and amazing
knitting
- Ilisha Helfman's cards
Then, some amazing yarn! Here's a pic of the card for the next

Ravelry, from Mission Falls!) has hooked us up! I'll be picking a
kit and yarn to be next month's incentive item. Just lettin' you

Falls 130 Superwash Merino!
