By far the highlight of the trip was getting to meet some very cool and very inspirational knitters. I actually took a photo of Romi last year, but didn't officially meet her because I was too shy (darn those introvert genes of mine), but this year I actually went and said hi. She is extremely awesome. We chatted a bit about motherhood and geekiness and took a picture of each other taking pictures of each other...my favorite (her version here).

And because I had treated myself to a latte before the show (thought I'd go all out since I was missing a baby-feeding anyway) and was literally vibrating from the extra caffeine, I had to take another picture, this time with two hands. Sheesh.

We also stopped by Ysolda's booth, tried on her beautiful samples (I'm in Laika, which I now MUST MAKE AND WEAR IMMEDIATELY), talked to her about her designs, and took a photo in her photobooth.

I love spotting my designs out in the wild. Here's a particularly beautiful Citron on the convention floor, made in Miss Babs sock yarn.

Looks like it was amazing!!! Glad you had such a fun time, and got to enjoy a little extra caffeine!
That looks like so much fun! I wish I could go to Stitches! My favourite might be the yarn-on-head photo. Fab.
