Just watched part of this Fruity Knitting podcast episode featuring Shetland Wool Week?
and spotted a beaming Peter among the crowd in the opening segment. Peter, it looks like such a great time! Color me envious.
I'm home with things pretty much back to normal after a 5-day evacuation due to the Kincade fire threat. All well at our house, can't say the same for some friends and acquaintances. A stone house on a treeless island sounds pretty good about now.

I really like Fruity Knitting too -- it's the only knitting podcast I ever watch. Particularly enjoy the not-American perspective.

I would recommend Shetland Wool Week to all on this group.
Wonderful classes, many of the calibre of Madrona, great atmosphere, and wonderful people. You meet so many that have moved there for the people.
I had a fun time as I celebrated my Knitting Wife's 60th birthday. Helen also went to Loch Ness Yarn Festival and recommends that as well.
I bought over 7 kg of wool - J&S, Jamiesons, Uradale; then JC Rennie near Aberdeen, and Border Mills near the England border.
Come home with over 5 kg of books as well.

Holy cow, Peter, that much wool would be a decade's knitting for me.
I have been seriously tempted by the Uradale yarns, they look beautiful.?
Glad you had a great time.

Oh, there is a few years of sweater volumes here. I don't know when I shall be returning, there are a number of designs I really want to make in the next upcoming years.
If I lived near Aberdeen, I would become bankrupt as a result of JC Rennie.

Hi everyone, I wish I could hit "like" on every one of these posts. Therese - thanks for pointing this out and now I've added Fruity Knitting to my YouTube list. What a charming podcast.? I haven't had much internet these last couple of months except for at work, which is a bit surprising, and hence the radio silence. The house in Brittany still doesn't have it, and I can't get a signal for either phone or internet unless I'm standing at specific windows at specific angles and even then it cuts in and out. I ordered internet in August, and it's finally getting put in this month. And only because I switched companies. Oy.? Two weeks ago, the internet and phone etc conked out in my apartment, and that took a week to get fixed, just in time for me to head out for the All Saints fall break. I'll send you more of an update later, as it's been a twisty-turny sort of fall, but overall a good one.? Love to all, Nilda, in Paris

So happy you had the best of everything: yarn, books, classes, but especially the wonderful people you've met.
Mary.
