Three friends and I drove to Abbostford on Friday to go to the annual Fibre's West in Abbotsford. We stayed overnight in Abbotsford and drove home the next day. It was lots of fun and everyone found goodies to buy. The event is quite small although it is growing every yera, it still barely filled half of the space. there were vendors from as far away as Vancouver Island and Alberta. I bought a little bit of knitting yarn but I couldn't find the specific yarns I was looking for. The Silk Tree had a booth but she did not hae the 12/2 silk that I was looking for. She said she will send it to me with no charge for mailing, so I just have to wait and see. The fun part for me was that I won the first door prize which included a Namaste knitting bag from Jane Staffford.
Laura Fry's booth.
my Namaste bag filled with goodies and then filled with my knitting.

Wow, that looks like it was a fun day - Abbotsford is pretty close to Bellingham - maybe next year we'll have to put together a road trip to go up for it. T.
