Happiness is...

....yummy yarn and lots of it!  This past weekend was the Duchess County Sheep & Wool Festival, aka Rhinebeck.  I went up on Sunday, hooked up with my friend A, her husband S, adorable daughter L and some of their friends.  I had already been through several buildings and snagged some yarn when I met up with them.  Then I bought some more.  I could have bought even more - I really could have - but resisted.  While I had projects in mind that needed yarn, I decided I really needed to knit my stash down some before I bought even more.  So, I've made a semi-resolution - no new yarn until I knit at least two projects off my Rhinebeck stash.  Seeing as how I haven't touched last year's stash yet, I think two is a reasonable start.  Since some of the yarn I bought this year is destined for a little sweater for my niece for Christmas and some of the other stash is for mittens for me or maybe someone I like, I think I may actually be able to stick to my resolution.  I may even try to post some pictures of the stash on Friday.
