I got some of the grey wool and it is simply delicious. I also got some of the nobby stuff of the 'little old Lady pink variety'. I know a lot of little old ladies, like! The autumn sale is usually better but then again, I suppose you don't need yarn for a while! ;-) Thought you would make it too. I got some of the grey wool and it is simply delicious.

I wasn't aware of a yearly sale, however, when I saw your cones I couldn't stop laughing. I work at a college that is in the garment district and have access to some fiber. In my office I have about three areas with cones of fiber and I can't tell you what I have at home aside from my yarn stash. It's fiber madness! Good for you, the colors are grand. Avoca!

Thankfully it was a one day sale, but I was "working the door" so that we could pay for the venue, and I just kept going back to pick up one more thing. A good sale on yarn is hard to resist.
