As usual, I heard all the Rhinebeck murmerings circulating through the blogosphere this year, and was so sad that I couldn’t go. I’ve not made it yet and I’m kicking myself for not having gone while I lived on the east coast where I could have at least made it into a roadtrip. California, for all it’s many wonderful things, isn’t really big on the sheep and wool festivals.

There’s always Taos, though, and I’m amassing a pack of knitters so perhaps I can con people into some sort of insane road trip. In the meantime, it seemed like a good occasion to rifle through my stash and find something I had forgotten to share.

This is my Mabon installment of the Wheel of the Year yarn from Gaia’s Colours. I chose the DK weight in the Ceres dark colorway–it’s a lovely rich colorway with lots of autumn browns and rusts. A scarf pattern was included with the yarn, and I think th pairing is going to work wonderfully!

It may not be Rhinebeck, but stash diving for new or forgotten finds? Way easier on the wallet!
