Stash Enhancement

I really meant to post this last Sunday but got distracted. Last Saturday, a friend and I went to 'Alpacas On The Rocks' at the fairgrounds. The day got off to a much better start than I anticipated.

Turns out yarn can say your name and your friends know it is looking for you. The yarn was in Salt Lake City waiting patiently at store that I wasn't going near this year. My friend saw it and brought it back for me. It even comes in a cute little bag. The yarn is bearfoote by Mountain Colors. The reds look much better than in the photo. So, now I just need to pick one of my sock patterns for size 4 needles. Actually, the pattern will call for 2's or 3's.

And as you can see I got about 12 ounces of roving at the Alpaca show. I have eight ounces split between two zip locks and about 4 ounces of the variegated.

The alpaca are really cute. One of the owners mentioned that some people mistake them for big poodles. Somehow, I don't think anyone in my neighborhood would be fooled.
