Stitches Midwest 2012

I went back to Schaumburg again for Stitches Midwest 2012.  A few observations:
Almost every vendor was exactly how I remember them even where their booth was located.  I also missed seeing some of the new trend in milk yarn this year, only to be replaced with buffalo yarn.  Buffalo yarn becomes progressively softer the more you wash it.  I also liked seeing a new yarn called Cashsilk Linea Pura, which was available at Mass Ave Knit Shop.  But sadly it was $14.50 a skein.  Here is how I came out this year

5 skeins of Laines du Nord prancer from Woolstock Yarn Shop
1skein of 50% bison/50% wool from Buffalo wool company
1 $5 skein of cotton yarn from Newton's Yarn Country
