(Belated) Gold Medalist

I got a gold. Now to treat myself to that new bag. Humm, a new bag from Yoka (the sheeps clothing store of choice) or a trip to Tuscany with these gals! Amy was in the shop today and I asked her if she may need an assistant. I am a trained sous chief as will as a damed fine ends weaver in-er. Ask any one I love to sew in ends. I used to do it for chocolate, but now I just do it to feel the love. That and I can't eat the chocolate any more(makes a certain part of my body ache, enough said.)

I think if I don't buy any yarn for a few weeks I could pay for the trip(in my dreams) But really, at the end of the week me,and my wee family are going on a ski trip to Kicking Horse. It's in Golden B.C. Hey I guess that will be my reward for knitting like a crazy lady for two weeks! Golden for getting gold.

My nephew Eli is liveing in Golden this winter, and his mom (my sister-in-law) is going too. This is all good even though I don't ski. Don't even want to try. But I will go up in the gondola to the top of the mountain. To sit in the fancy pants restaurant, drink tea, and spin yarn. Yup you heared right, I'm taking my Little Gem spinning wheel on holiday. Yea for me ,my turn for a trip. (Sorry Amy, sew your own ends in.)

On the needles: just knit a Teva Durham. The steaked vest from Loop de Loop. Knit that puppy out of the new yarn from Rowan, Hoilday. Then I'm making a shawl from my left overs from my oylmpic sweater. As well as a ton of shop knitting for the sheep. Erin will take pics tomorrow. As my friend Tabby says ,peace out.
