Rhinebeck 2013 Wrap-Up
Rhinebeck was amazing this year. The weather was even better than last year (about 10 degrees cooler, which made it perfect sweater weather). I bought some great stuff, ate some excellent meals, and had a ton of fun.
My husband took a photography class with Gale Zucker (aka She Shoots Sheep Shots) and had a great time taking pictures all weekend. So he gets the credit for all these photos.
The gorgeous fall colors
Crowds waiting to get in on Sunday-there were at least twice this many on Saturday!
One of the many barns stuffed with vendors, yarn, and people
Woolly friends
Me enjoying a cider donut (it was delicious!!!)
The colossal line for Miss Babs’s booth–it was like this all weekend!
And, of course, I couldn’t have a Rhinebeck post without showing you my purchases, hehe.
First up, a huge skein of Dirty Water Dyeworks Johanna, which will probably become a vest or short-sleeved sweater:
These six skeins of O-Wool Balance Bulky are going to become a cabled shawl/wrap:
And finally, my husband picked out these two skeins of Green Mountain Spinnery Mountain Mohair, for gloves he’s going to knit himself:
Not pictured: a Barbara Walker stitch treasury that I’ve had trouble finding in stores, maple cotton candy, a huge bag of local apples.
I think we did pretty well this year!
It looks wonderful, and how awesome that your husband took a photography class too!
I saw the class going on Saturday..if I had a better camera, might have taken it….pretty, pretty yarns…Saturday was madness…Sunday so much easier to see things…
