The enabler has been enabled
Years of enabling others to buy yarn has come full circle. My friends are now turning the tables and steering me towards fiber and yarn that they know I'll like and they're *really* enjoying it when I buy.
Fair enough. It's a win-win. Stitches West 2010 Market Preview:
What a nice evening. Thank you to my friends--I had a good time hanging out with you tonight.

Booths #627 & 726 - Jordana Paige has her bags and patterns available and is giving you an opportunity to win a JP bag. I was carrying my Knitter's Satchel so she videotaped me describing what I like about the bag. I was caught off-guard and I think I was babbling more than talking. I hope I didn't ramble too much. ;)
In return, I received her latest beret pattern, Mila. Nice!

Booths #622 & 624 - I've never tried selling my handspun, so it was very rewarding to see Beat the Blahs in the KnitWhits booth in the Humanity Handspun display. Hey, I did that (and you can buy it)!
