So last weekend, Harlot thing, knitbloggers, fun! Well I met Sarah, and chatted with said Sarah, and she mentioned that she had plans to visit Houston this weekend to hit some museums, including the MFAH. I’ve been wanting to see the Gee’s Bend quilts, so I totally crashed her party. Well, if you call going to a museum a party. I met up with her and her friends Jaime and Noah and checked out the exhibit, which was great. Jaime took an awesome photo of us in the tunnel between the buildings. I was a bad photographer and took a single picture - this mask in the entrance to the gold section. Ah well.

Naturally, we had to check out the local yarn shops. Sarah had visited Yarntopia on Friday, so we swung by Yarns 2 Ewe for some hot Koigu action. I picked up the summer Knit.1 magazine soley for the Cropped Cardigan pattern. Super cute. I’m planning to use some Classic Elite Renaissance that I picked up when Yarntopia first opened. However, I don’t have enough yarn, and Yarntopia is almost out. HCW last weekend carried it also, but their dye lot was crazy different from what I have, so I don’t think I’ll have much luck unless I find more of the same dyelot. We shall see how this turns out, I’m already planning on 3/4 length sleeves…
