Fuzzy, Soft, Ewok Heads!
Sunday was spent at the alpaca show with Sonya. It was my fourth show, but her first, so it was fun to get to explain all about the alpacas. Especially when she didn't get that glazed over look that your non-knitting friends get when you mention yarn and fiber. The amount of cuteness that can be packed into one wing never fails to amaze me. Two alpaca owners even let us into the pens to pet some of their less-skittish animals.
I just had to kiss this pretty guy (or girl, I'm not really sure).
Sonya marveling at just how soft the alpacas really are.
I loved the way these two were posing.
In other news, I finished my socks! Yay!
And I bought a little project bag from Lora!
In not such great news, I have no inspiration for my next project. I tried to start pair of socks, but I'm just not feeling them. I'm taking my Latvian mittens to knitting tonight and hopefully get at least one thumb finished. I have the perfect pair of socks picked out once I spin up my batts, but thats about two weeks away most likely. I guess I'm going to focus on spinning for a few weeks, and work on the mitten thumbs as I feel the urge.

Okay, now I'm really jealous. Not only is your spinning awesome and your knitting unbelievably beautiful, now you get to fraternize with Alpacas. Is life fair? I think not. :) I'm kind of limping around with my knitting as well, trying to use up my stash. Boring!!!!
