Episode 9-Show Notes; Sadly no singing...

Hey all...hope youve have enjoyed our most recent episode. I've had a little problem with insomnia this week and thus, haven't been up to snuff when it comes to writing show notes...Bare with me here and hope that the drugs kick in soon

When visiting lovely Southeastern Pennsylvania, don't forget to check out the attractions in the Brandywine Valley including
Longwood Gardens
Winterthur
The Dansko Outlet &
The Chadds Ford Winery. Though I wouldn't recommend the whites...

This week we visited two yarn shops,
The Wool Gathering in Kennett Square
and The Garden of Yarn in Chadds Ford (no website!)

Don't forget to check out
Carol's Black Bunny Yarn Itsy Shop or Rosie's Yarn Cellar to stock up on your Black Bunny for Knitty D and the City's first KNIT-A-LONG. Stay tuned to the website for updates on the KAL which we will likely be starting after we return from Cape Cod. This will be a bit of a different KAL in that there isn't ONE project we'll be knitting, but a "brand" of yarn we will be highlighting in different projects!

Wendy hopes to make the Adamus Shawl from MimKnits when she finishes Icarus (Interweave Summer 2006).

When visiting The Wool Gathering, we highly suggest lunching or drinking at The Half Moon Restaurant and Saloon. Try the crab nachos and the buffalo burgers (you heard right, 98% fat free)!

Wendy tried to explain Socks Wars but I still don't get it.

Find the pattern for Jaywalkers at Magknits. Thank Grumperina regularly for such a GREAT pattern.

Check out Wendy's blog to see photos of her recently completed Tulip...knit with the yarn she scored on our yarn tour of Chester County. This pattern is by our old pal and knitting teaching Lisa Maso...check out her blog and her new book @ My Life in Stitches.

Don't forget, if you've made a Wallabee, send your yardage estimates to Wendy; she needs guidance and suggestions.

Coming up Our Cast On Diet (also known as I MUST FINISH THIS!), Cape Cod Road Trip, more obsessive Anne purchasing and planning for NYS Sheep and Wool...

Peace, Love and ICE CREAM for everyone!

Since I always want to do what the 'cool kids' are doing, I'll join with the Black Bunny KAL. I think I'll make the potmatomus socks.
