Carol, sure hope you could make it to the rally. You know how few and far between these west coast festivals are and how fortunate we are to have a rally at the same time. I'm sure you are familiar with Ravelery, a social network for over 3 million knitters and spinners and weavers. I'm Sharon160 over there and if you aren't a member, check out
www.ravelry.com. HOpe you can join us for the rally and fun.
