Loopy love

I cannot put into words how much fun it was at The Loopy Ewe Spring Fling! It was amazing to meet Sheri, Wendy, Cookie A., Claudia and everyone else who went! Sheri really put together a top notch event. We even got to meet her family and the Loopy Elves. Since there are so many posts out in blogland about the Fling I'll keep this short and sweet.

*disclaimer* I really didn't wear the same shirt all weekend...I only took pictures on one day. I am NOT 7ft tall. I just had on my new bad ass Michael Kors sandals that make me look that way.. I'm actually a 5'4" shortykins. Apparently I turn into Crafty ShinyFace after 10pm. Last but not least.. whoever said that the camera adds 10 20 lbs was right ;)

Here's my stroll down short term memory lane.

Sheri is gorgeous!...

Cookie A. is brilliant on a level that I can't comprehend and I'll leave the socks designing to her...

Wendy was able to convince me that toe-up socks aren't evil and Stacy made me want to go live in Oklahoma...

I met fabulous people from all over and made some great friends...

I even helped sing a song.. and there were no bleeding ears!

It was a fantastic weekend of fun, friends and fiber. I wish it would have lasted many more days.. and that I could have taken Claudia home with me.. that is one fantastic chick!

The icing on the weekend cake was Monday. As if I didn't have a terrific four days already.. I got to top it off with meeting Miss Hazel Knits herself, Wendee. She was down in SoCal for yarny business and was nice enough to come hang out with me for a few hours. We had fun hanging out in Laguna Beach and went to a couple of art galleries and then had lunch. I had a great time and now need to order more of her yarn!

Speaking of yarn.. I might have bought a couple of skeins during my field trip to The Loopy Ewe.. and a couple of people might have gotten a picture of it.. and it might be a miracle that I found room to get it all home.

Now I'm off to read blogs with much better accounts of the Fling and check out the Flickr group.

I'm so glad you had fun! We missed you though!

Yay! It was great to meet you, and I loved seeing your photos here :-) Glad you made it home safe and sound and can't wait to see all the loot you dragged home ;-D A :-)

I just figured everyone was really short!

Glad you had such a great time. I love that Spring Fling yarn I saw. I am so jealous!

Miss you and can't wait to see you again!!!! Didn't get to spend nearly enough time with you.

Sounds like an awesome trip!! And some gorgeous yarn souvenirs :)

Is was a wonderful weekend, wasn't it? I just wish we all were local and could get together once a month! A year seems a long time to wait for another Fling!! (It does give us time to knit up some of the Fling Stash that we brought home!!)

Wow...sounds like a great time. Still so jealous, but I DID get to meet the Harlot last weekend, so it takes the edge off. ;) Can't wait to see your souveniers! LOL

What fun...sounds like an awesome time! You're gorgeous....love, love your hair! Makes me want to go short again! Need to lose some of my weight though!:) Can't wait to see the goodies you got! hugs, Dawn

Looks like an absolutely amazing time. Glad you had so much fun and purple and all its hues are definitely your colour! You look like royalty in that top!

Hey, I'm playing a little game on my blog...you're "tagged". Go check it out! :) Miss your posts; hope you blog it up soon.
