Prepping for New York

In a scant two weeks I'll be hopping on a train, heading up to New York for the New York Sheep and Wool Festival in Rhinebeck.

Why, you may wonder, would I do such a thing? Because I'll be working at my publisher's booth, helping thousands and thousands of fiber enthusiasts to find What Would Madame Defarge Knit?. I'll also have special treats for folks who buy the book there, or bring their copy for me to sign.

If you're in the area, please stop by. And if you've never thought to go to a wool festival, you may want to give it a try. They have sheepdog trials (which are amazing), gem shows, spectacular food, animals animals animals and a lot of cool stuff that gets demonstrated at booths (like how to reel silk). It's a great place to bring kids.

Just be prepared to see lots of fierce shoppers with pointy sticks.
