I'm a bit tired already but the first official day of Sock Summit ROCKED!!! Well, with these ladies running it, how could it not?

Before I jump into Sock Summit, I have to share the note that Christy's daughter left under my door last night.

Yesterday and today I helped with Vendor Registration! Fun stuff....got to check in the daily door prizes (lots and lots of awesome giveaways!!!), help with the silent auction, etc.

I finally finally got to meet Stacey!!! And Turtlegirl too (hope she has a cute picture of us! I still need to get one!). Lots of other knitty friends too but the camera wasn't around!

I hope to have more pictures later! Having a blast! Oh, the yarn....its all gorgeous, but one of my new favorites is here! I got two of her merino/cashmere/nylon base yarns...yummy!!

Happy Sock Summit!!!

I can't believe how big sock summit is! There would be nothing of this size in Australia for knitting, let alone just for sock knitting!
