Well, coming from one of my favorite Rhinebeck veterans, this is like The Oracle and dudes, I am paying attention.
Friday, I ran to my local yarn shop and got something to make something a little more in line with the program because: I have nothing to wear!!
Yes, the eternal mantra of fashionistas everywhere is Ringing in my Ears this morning as I read the weather forecast for Rhinebeck:
| Friday | Saturday |
47° F
| |
50° F |
|
Chance Rain
50% chance of precipitation
|
Chance Rain
30% chance of precipitation
|
These *friendly* conditions call for ACTION!
Chill & Pill and needle and yarn and something easy and warm to snuggle down in because rain & 40-ish degrees makes my ears shiver.
I can do that ;p
Find us on Ravelry as *
I hear ya! I”m suddenly and frantically trying to whip up a “Rhinebeck hat and scarf”, because somehow I think my “Rhinebeck sweater” isn’t going to get much visibility under my coat! ;)
Would love to see a survey of how many people are trying to finish up a project to wear to Rhinebeck! I’ve been staying up late to finish a moss stitch jacket. In my delirium, I *think* I’ll also be able to quickly knit up a pumpkin hat for a friend’s baby to wear to her first Rhinebeck S&W festival.
This is a challenge I’m up for too! Vacation starts tonight, so yarn shopping tomorrow. Yay!
Oooh, I love that Cascade Ecological Wool stuff! It’ll look great no matter what you make! And–bonus–it’ll be ultra fast.
Cascade Ecological in that colour – that’ll make for some happy knitting! Wish I was going to Rhinebeck…
I finished my Mondo Cable Cap last night and wore it this morning for our first California rain (deluge!!!) of the season. THIS HAT IS AWESOME: easy, comfy and a fun knit. Thanks so much. Have fun at Rhinebeck. I would take my cap. I have some Ecological Wool that I am thinking of using for one of the caps.
Love that picture, wool & wood. I wanna knit! Too much work & too many things to do that are not knitting. (snif, snuffle, sob)
Leaving Chicago whose weather looks much the same to go a cold, wet, rainy, vacation spot? Is this sanity?
