The Road to Rhinebeck

The Mister and I have managed to convince ourselves that we will be able to go to Rhinebeck this year. So much so, that we have actually booked a room-a non-refundable room. As a result, I have been working feverishly on the garments I would like to parade around in and all but one is completed.
 
The Aran sweater is still in pieces.

The two at a time sleeves have only an inch to go before I should be able to start seaming but the problem is the heat and humidity make working on them a real drag. I am adding only two rows a day now and those two rows are like torture. I can only hope, that after all this, the festival takes place on a weekend that is cool enough for wool. After this summer, I have my doubts. I also have my doubts we will really be going. With elderly parents and aged pets anything (and everything) can happen.

    wow you have knit so much and spun and dyed so much this summer. I hope it is down right chilly and you wear everything. It is so hot here that clothing should be optional.
