Okay, so technically it’s late on Tuesday morning. Shhh.

Anyway, what I picked up at the Holiday Fair I went to on Saturday. Some yarn and some fabric and also a skirt (which I don’t have pictures of). Unplanned Peacock was there, and I splurged (really, since it was more expensive than I’ve ever spent on one skein of yarn) on some sock yarn in the delightfully phoenix-y color solar:

I also picked up a lovely skein of sport weight alpaca for five bucks (I KNOW):

And two silk bells weighing about 38g total, even though I’ve never spun silk before:

And finally, at one of the tables selling fabric, there were two bins of free scraps of fabric. Some of them were really large pieces (like a yard), and I scored a couple:

The brocade will probably be a corset (with several muslins). Not sure about the other ones though.
