deadline

October 14, 2010

no time to talk.
just a quick update.
there is much more sweater to be done.
but it might just be ready in time for saturday’s debut.

i am thoroughly exhausted from all this intense knitting.
and the colorwork is really taking it out of me.

i’ve left my house where my comfy bed lives
and am knitting at a friend’s apartment.

i have eight hours before i leave for rhinebeck.

i haven’t packed.

i won’t make it tonight.

but as ga ga as my witness,
i will wear this sweater through rhinebeck’s gates!

    hey- if you get the time, and idk if you have the budget- but there’s this amazing restaurant right there in town- le petit bistro

    8 E Market St
    Rhinebeck, NY 12572-7620
    (845) 876-7400

    it’s a bit pricey but it’s AMAZING.

    Anyway. Hope you have a blast at the NYWSF and really enjoy yourself. It’s quite the experience.

    (ps- there’s an all night diner down in Poughkeepsie right up near the hospital. Favorite college haunt of mine. The Palace Diner. 194 Washington St
    Poughkeepsie, NY 12601-1357
    (845) 473-1576. I love their menu, been there way too many late and drunken nights. contrary to popular belief, it is NOT better than the everready in Hyde Park.)
