I wasn't able to publish my stashalong updates while I was on my trip. I knitted madly on the Isis Wrap while I was gone. I will post a picture of that soon, although it is still not finished.
I did make my one planned stashalong purchase at the Estes Park Wool Market. I have been very good at not buying any yarn and that was part of what helped me. I was so looking forward to the wool market!
I was overwhelmed once I got there! There was so much great fiber. I bought 500 yards of a wool/mohair blend that I plan to knit into a shawl and a bag of fiber to spin on my new drop spindle! I got a spindle instead of a wheel. I thought that I would practice drafting with it and if I really caught the bug I'd get myslef a wheel for Christmas.
I am almost done with my 3 months of the stashalong!!!
