My Halloween plans were thwarted this year buy this:

The common cold virus. The cowboy had his bout with the bugger last weekend and I am battling him as we speak. Thank God for tea and benadryl cold.
The cowboy, however, had an action packed Halloween at school.

There is my Bob the Builder. He loved playing Bob all day. I was supposed to dress up as Wendy… but opted to keep the sweats on during our brief trick or treating. Good thing that a 3 year old is satisfied with hitting only 2 houses. I felt like a real heel because I couldn’t muster up the energy to give out candy… we just got in our PJ’s and snuggled up in the recliner together.
I did manage to meet some fibery deadlines today.

All of this will be at Stitches East this weekend.

Yup.. I am the “phantom dyer” behind the Woolworks Signature Sock. Go check them out at the convention.

This is over 2 dozen - 4oz bumps of merino tencel (yes… there is some platinum in there)

and this is 1 dozen-4oz bumps of superwash wool. Yummy! You can find this and more sock yarns (dyed under their label by me) at my LYS booth at Stitches. Cloverhill is a great shop! Stop by and check them out.
Ok…. off to braid and then to bed. Happy Halloween friends!

Hope you feel better, and have a wonderful time at Stitches East. Is it close enough that you can sleep at home?

It may be too late, but I have to recommend those zinc lozenges for any cold sufferer. My hubby brought home a packet for me when I got a cold, and I had a cold for three days, instead of the usual 7-10.
Anyway, I hope you feel better. I’m sorry to have to miss Stitches.

Wow! Glad it wasn’t just me that happened to! I did hand out candy though, I just hope that none of the kids get sick too.

WOW! that is a lot of yarn! We’ll have to swing by the booth when we are there!
Good for you for spending a fun night doing both T or T and cuddling with the boy - the best of both worlds!
Such a cute little Bob he makes!

Get well soon, chica! You’ll be busy busy at Stitches.

Hope you get better soon, having a cold is no fun. And I’ll second the idea of zinc cold lozenges. Those things work wonders for me.
Love all the yarn, you’ve been pretty busy it looks like!
