Proof that BritKnitter and CynicalKnitter Actually Met

The inevitable self-portrait of the City Mouse (right) and the Country Mouse (left) in Philadelphia, PA, Saturday, July 11th!

Didn't realize I was a City Mouse...but I am.

I had such a great time in Philadelphia. Although I was there for a family wedding, I think the highlight was meeting the self-proclaimed Country Mouse, BritKnitter! I am so appreciative of her gutziness and steadfast determination to come into Philadelphia from BritKnitterville to meet little old me. I know, I'm not really all that little. Nevermind that.

We met on what turned out to be a very pretty, sunny, but grossly muggy day at a neat little shop called Rosie's Yarn Cellar. The staff was friendly (and searching Ravelry while we were there). We each chose a souvenier and got the heck out of there because if it was muggy outside, inside it was like a slow broiling sauna. Blech.

We chatted like old friends and new friends all at once. I enjoyed meeting BritKnitter so much, though I felt we had already known each other for a long time too. I love the blogosphere.

BritKnitter got some Noro, very exciting indeed. The yarn I got is so soft, I want to carry it with me everywhere. I won't though.

they are blooming!
