Mark your calendars ~ on 9/20 and 9/21/08 is the annual "A Wool Gathering". I didn't make it to this last year but I really want to go this year. Wouldn't it be cool to get a group of knitter friends together and maybe go on Friday evening (or Saturday morning) and come back Sunday. Stay one or two nights depending on what the group wants to do. Imagine a weekend of knitting and wool OMG! Anyone interested? I checked some of the hotels near the event and they have a few rooms still available so if we are going to do this we must act fast!

I'm planning on going to A Wool Gathering also, but I'm just going to drive down for the day, and I'm not sure which day yet. Can you tell I'm not a planner?
When I do finally make plans/get days off from work, let's make plans to meet up. If anyone else wants to carpool down and back let me know. I'll have to see if I can get Sat off, but I never work Sun.
Molly, I'm not a planner either :)
I plan on going for a day and probably breaking my rule of no yarn this year. I'm hoping to make a day of it with hiking and strolling through Yellow Springs along with looking at lots and lots and lots and lots of yarn.
