I think my favorite booth at Stitches South was YOTH Yarns’ booth. I got to meet Veronika for the first time after having been acquaintances online for a couple of years (she interviewed me on her blog, Yarn on the House). It was so great to see her gorgeous brand and talk with her in person!! She and the rest of her team were all so friendly, and I got to sit and chat awhile with her during lunch one day, which was a real treat. I came away with two skeins of Little Brother for myself (and one for Jenn), and every time I look at them I see another stripey shawl or wrap or scarf design in my future…

The colorways together make me think of morning mist surrounding tree trunks, so I think I’ll let that mental image be the inspiration for whatever I design. I’d better remember that!

Look at this adorable tote they gave me — I carried it around for the rest of the trip!

That’s not all I got whilst visiting their lovely booth. I’ll write about the rest of it another time, as I think this entry has quite enough photos as it is! ;D
