Not that kind of lucky, but the kind of lucky when one finds another great LYS. I was in nearby Glasgow, Kentucky for a press okay and set a spell and knit at Crafty Hands in Bowling Green both ways to the airport. If I had NOT swung by on my way home I would not have found these great new patterns from Churchmouse Yarns & Teas. This shop is on Bainbridge island near Seattle and am still sad our schedule did not allow a visit when DH and I were in Seattle. Sigh. I'm pretty much in love with all these patterns and showed them to my hometown LYS so she would order some for her shop.
I spent an awful lot of my downtime in Kentucky listening to this while working on yet another Clapotis, and driving around the beautiful countryside.
Close enough to finishing Clapotis to justify starting a new project, Turkish Bed Socks. This one is way fun, perfect little socks for my clogs. First time knitting with Koigu... love it. Picked up a couple skeins of Santa Fe, think it will work nicely for these socks too.

I love those bed socks!! I miss our yarn shop jaunts, Stacey. I'm gonna come visit soon, k? Mom is moving down there in Sept, so I'll be around lots.
