Several people just left the company, either for medical reasons or personal reasons, anyway, with three people down on top of the shortages that already existed we're missing like five or six people right now. I've been covering vacations on night shift and now, I'm helping to cover evening shift as well, so the whole point is that I'm not getting a day off until next Monday, so May basically... I'm not really complaining I want the money, Its just that its a combination of all three shifts, so when I'm not at work I'm going to be sleeping. Which means not alot of time for knitting or my shows.... oh well, at least when this is done, I'll have a little extra cash to blow on some really nice yarn! I'm thinking some Madelinetosh. Or maybe I'll go out to Jamesville and check out the Yarn Cupboard, they have Spud and Chloe.
I wanted to do a quick update about the Fair. We kept it really low key this year. I entered 10 items into the fair and we only went one day to just look around. We refrained from rides and excessive amounts of fair food. So, onto my entries: I entered: a sewn tote bag, which I think I blogged about a few weeks ago. It got first place then went on to win Best in Show. Sewn Tote with Best in Show ribbon I also entered the beaded shawl I finished in June, that also won a blue ribbon and went on to receive Best in Show. Beaded Holden mixed among other Best in Show items Six of my other items also won blue ribbons: Liara's socks Mandy Cowl Killer Queen Cowl Clean Windmill Dishcloth set Sacket's Harbor Mittens and Drops of Spring Fingerless Mitts The second place ribbon I received for my Hum Beanie is also in this picture. Then I received third place for Sunset Hat. The first and second place entries for this class are in this picture ...
