As many of you know, I will be going to The Loopy Ewe Spring Fling Retreat from April 23-26, 2009, in St. Louis, MO. I love the concept of a knitting retreat -- nothing but knitting as much as you want for an entire period of time with wonderful people that you meet for the first time. There is something about the knitting community that is warm, friendly and full of laughs. If you aren't one of us, you may have a hard time believing this but it's true. Upon my return from LA, my swap package was here from Amy (a veteran of the Loopy Ewe retreat). What a wonderful gift! One of Amy's favorite yarns is 'Dream in Color'. I had never heard of this yarn but decided to add it to my Loopy wishlist. It is now part of my stash thanks to Amy. It's wonderful! I never thought I would ever see Wollmeise yarn due to it's popularity. Amy is the best! Somehow she provided a sample skein of Wollmeise in my favorite colors of blue and green. It will be the perfect yarn for making a mini sock for the Keychain Sock Blocker that has been waiting for the 'perfect' yarn. I'm really looking forward to meeting Amy in 18 days to thank her in person for such a thoughful package!
