I spent the day debating whether or not to leave the cottage early since the weather was gray and damp.. Ended leaving around 2pm which was only about 2 hours earlier than I originally planned. I also spent some free time frogging a pair of mitlits that I did a cable row wrong on and recasting on a pair of socks that were pooling bad and making me crazy.. so I feel like I made no real knitting progress… However, I am ready to rock and roll on knitting these items now that I have fixed the problems. I hope you have a great time at STITCHES..

Have a great and productive time at Stitches with some fun time thrown in there also. Come back with lots of sales and not much of anything else. That should make it easier on Tom, who is a keeper. I spoke with my husband, did Wii, watched tennis (US Open), and read a book. That was my Labor Day, not very exciting but sometimes that happens. Not any knitting since Friday, time has just gotten away from me and I have been busy doing things getting ready for my trip. Hope to knit on the plane, though.

I wish I was going to Stitches MIdwest with Lea-Ann. Instead, I spent my no-labor day grading papers and doing laundry and, of course, knitting. Since my husband is out of town (in Atlanta helping our son move into his first house), I could do as I pleased, and although I would have liked to knit more this afternoon (I *will* knit more tonight), those pesky papers needed to be graded before 8am (or, for the second set), by 9:15am) tomorrow.

My current knitting project is a pair of socks—Wendy Johnson’s Feather and Fan Socks—for my mom.

DH and I travelled to Shipshewana this Labor Day for my only visit to the flea market this season. We went early and got out before the rest of the world showed up. I did not knit much today but got a bunch done on(what else) a pair of socks from the Eclectic knitter in a lovely Autumn colorway from Araucania. Yummy! I second Heather’s comment . Tom rocks! Go Blue(right Tom!). Hope to see you next UFO night. Probably flying solo that night.

Hope you have a great time at Stitches. Wish I could go. I spent most of my Labor Day knitting while watching reruns of Design Star and catching up on laundry. Really exciting stuff. We did go and see the old cars since we live so close, but couldn’t go yesterday because of a water tank blow-out and a flooded laundry room. It’s just as well because I’m diligently trying to get my Christmas knitting done.

Tom rocks! We are so glad he supports what you do!

This labor day we are taking a drive back to MA. It looks like a beautiful day for a drive. We’ll even have time to make some stops on our route and enjoy!

I am taking along a HK tech book and will work on a sampler piece when not driving.
Have fun at Stitches!!!!
