This Lady Knits

Friday night we went to see the THE Yarn Harlot at 3rd Place Books.  We had a great time, there were new friends, laughing, knitting and all around merriment.  We were at the back of the line for to meet Stephanie, and it wound through the travel section, there are some strange titles in the travel section, one of them Dork Whore, was about a 20 something pseudo virgin.  We were laughing about that as we were waiting, especially since a certain someone blushes at the word (I’m not naming names… just saying).  Any way Stephanie caught wind of our conversation, we were a bit on the boisterous side, Sparkles shared with Stephanie our joke. She went first.  I happen to be spinning Buffalo on the drop spindle, and well had to share the buffalo goodness with Stephanie, so I asked her if she wanted to pet my buffalo, she found this so amusing she had to put her head down on the table.  Then as she was petting my buffalo, she said “I’ve never been asked….ohhh is there silk in your Buffalo?”

Anyway, here’s the pictorial of the evening.

 Ok, so the lighting wasn’t the best on stage, but here’s Stephanie taking a picture of THE sock while showing it the knitters who are there to see THE sock.

Some new found friends. Sparkles is with Stephanie and her parnter (a non knitter, but definately way more than tolerant of knitters than an ordinary muggle, so I’ll make her an honary knitter, if it’s ok with her).  See I took a picture before they were ready and Sparkles partner is pointing at me accusingling of being the culprit, which I don’t deny.

Here’s MHP playing camera tag with Stephanie, yes he really does like to take pictures.

Stephanie playing I’ll show you mine, you show me yours and we’ll be done with MHP (get your mind out of the gutter. MHP didn’t quite grasp the concept and played for a few more minutes until we were done.

Libby and Stephanie

Oh yes, Mr Pink did come out to meet Stephanie, even posed for a pic with her.

Christina was there too, she tatted this adorable bookmark for Stephanie.
