One of the many good things about working night shift at my job is I can easily attend sales/etc. during the day when everyone else is at work. After going to the gym this morning I headed off to the annual Salvation Army Fabric Fair right in my town.
I got there about 20mins early. I was actually going to run to the post office but lucky I thought to check it out first and see if there was a line! So after jumping in line and waiting for 5mins we were allowed to go in early which was very nice of them. Not thinking further, I didn't bring bags with me but was provided them by the ladies volunteering for the sale.
After I went straight to the back for the room that held the yarn and got my fill, I headed back out to check out everything else. I then noticed just how quickly full the place got! Also, while in the yarn room I got head butted. I don't know how to explain it but a lady next to me was reaching down into a basket for yarn the same time I was. We did apologize to one another and went on our way. Later on I also got ran over by a older man using a walker. I'm guessing his wife forced him to be there because he was very grumpy. I didn't notice him moving because I was focusing on going through some craft books. He then ran the walker into my back to get by because I wouldn't move. After about a hour I was ready to get out of there.
After getting my fill of everything I then stood in line for a long time to check out. I had a few conversations with other ladies around me and the Mennonite ladies.
On my way out the door I then saw this sign which made me laugh. I wasn't upset by the few "accidents" that happened to me. I expect them where a large number of people gather.
We also got to see the border collies demonstration on herding. I also meet one lady that had a bunch of guinea pigs. She wanted me to buy one of her angora rabbits. It was so tempting but thinking about what my landlord might say stopped me. There was also a number of sheep everywhere and all kinds of breeds. The sheep were loving the attention and petting. I could tell a few owners of the sheep really cared for them as well. 
The finished project and I had fun wearing it. I also came up with the ideas for flowers and buttons. It fits around my big head and thick hair so I'm happy. I'm having a blast coming up with new ideas for crochet projects.
