What’s happening in your neck of the woods this week?
Pom-Pom Magazine is making an appearance at Rhinebeck! Are you?

Crocheted blanket of Jeff Buckley is so awesome.
I love this article for the phrase neofunky crochet.
Berroco will be hosting an October Sweater Challenge. Given the ridiculous amounts of Berroco yarn I have specifically to make sweaters, I think I’m in. If only I can find time to knit said sweaters.
The New York City Yarn Crawl is happening soon!
