Last Friday I went to a Red Sox game with my family!  I don’t know too much about baseball, but it wasn’t a very good game for the Red Sox.  They lost against the Yankees.  I do have some nice pictures from the game though.

It’s Fenway Park!

And on Saturday I went to the Knit and Crochet Show in Manchester, NH!

There was a Ravelry meet up there!  I met Jess and Casey.  There were a lot of Ravelers, but not as many as the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival.  Jess was giving out stickers!  It was a lot of fun!

All the Ravelers around the buttons

The stickers

The show was pretty big.  Lots of vendors were there.  Habu was one of them.  I had to buy four cones (2 oz.) of the Silk Stainless yarn to make the new Sea Tangles sweater from the Knitty surprise.  I also bought a skein of laceweight cotton because it was so soft. :) Another vendor had Lornas Laces.  I bought 2 skeins of sock yarn from them.  What else did I get… Hmmm… there was a skein of Malabrigo Worsted in Whales Road, 3 skeins of purple Noro Cash Iroha, and a pattern for the Woven Kimono Cardigan.

This is just some of the vendors

As we were leaving, there was a car right in front of us.  It turned out that it was Jess and Casey from Ravelry leaving at the same time we were leaving.  Weird, right?  Now for the pictures fo my newly purchased stash.

As of three days ago, I decided to collect buttons for my Ravelry bag.  Right now they’re mostly buttons from Ravelry, but I’ll get more.
