Four Months, 1 Post

Thursday, October 25, 2012

Je reviens d'un séjour extraordinaire à l’état de New York pour assister au Dutchess County Sheep and Wool Festival. Comme la tradition le demande (supposément), il faut tricoter un « chandail Rhinebeck », à porter bien évidemment au cours du festival. J’ai passé plusieurs mois à faire le mien puisque la laine a été filée à mon rouet. J’ai TANT de photos à afficher que je vais tout simplement raconter les derniers mois en images.


I've just returned from my first trip to Rhinebeck for the Dutchess County Sheep and Wool Festival. This being in he middle of the fall term, I had to submit some assignments early in order to to take the Friday off and had to do some homework on the ride home, but to say that it was worth it would be such an understatement. It’s hard for me to describe the trip without crazy hyperboles so I won’t bother – instead I hope to eventually post the many, many photos that should tell the woolly story of the last few months!



I combined my handspun skeins of "Wildflowers" and "Electric Rose" (dyed by Pigeonroof Studios)  to knit: 

(it's a modified version of Kim Hargreave's Wisdom. Ravelry link here.



It has pockets!
I made sure to wear the heck out of the sweater at Rhinebeck, as one does.
