Yes that's like an hour from me...and I never seem to be able to get there!Always something conflicting on my schedule. this year too- my husband's big family reunion that weekend in Mass. (can't miss it- the first time my husband will have seen his cousins, aunts and uncles in like 35 years or so. !)

Oh....I feel spending coming on! Did you all get the email from Ibex about their new Carrie? It is really sharp looking and totally different from all my existing Ibex stuff. I think I might need one (or two, or three....).
I know some of you don't like the boucle fabric - but I do. I have 4 Carrie hoodies and I LOVE them. I'm so excited that they've created a new style!!

lol. The thing I love about you guys is that you always make me feel restrained. I can now pat myself upon the back for only having 2 carrie hoodies.
I love them both though.
While I love the red on the new carrie, I think I prefer the old style.
I confess that I think I have enough nice wool stuff to last me already for a while without buying any new wool this winter.(in reality, i likely have enough wonderful wool to last me the next 10 years!)
The only thing that might have tempted me is some new Shak color I couldn't resist. But oh well, no new shak colors that appeal to me this Fall.
Can i make it through the whole Fall and winter without buying any new wool pieces?
I think I might only allow myself a thrift shop bargain if I found one.

I don't have any wool jerseys anymore. I used to have some fabulous Italian ones back in the 80s when they were the norm.
But that's soon to change...
I really want one of those Ride Like A Girl longsleeve wool jerseys that Terry is selling. But at $135, it ain't gonna happen. However, I'm keeping my eyes out for some that are a bit more reasonable, if not as cute.
I want that new Shak "jersey." But, it's $135.00. Probably won't be at any discounters, since it's new...
I think I might be buying some wool LS shirts, dressier t's like the Kate. I already have 2 of those, so does anyone have any recommendations for something similar? I really can't wear wool any heavier than that next to my skin; even the Kates start to itch me a little, especially if I am wearing a Shak over it.
The long sleeve pointelle is really soft and nice next to the skin (and it's on sale). It's a bit sheer though so while it's not see-thru, it may not be a good protection from a shak if you find that itchy.
I like the look of the Tarrah and I believe that's the same fabric as the Kate...but it's new and therefore still expensive!

I really need some wool Injinji socks.
Wish I could find somewhere around here that stocks them. I haven't been much in the mood for mail order lately. except for that big order I just got from TE

Running in the Ibex Izzi pants: not recommended!! I did that today and tripped by catching my toe on the bottom of the opposite pant leg b/c the pants are flared. At least this happened on wood chips in the park rather than on the pavement or on a rocky trail, so it was a soft landing (plus I wasn't going that fast). The pants are comfy and great for general everyday wear, but not so much for running (or am I just a klutz?).

Joneswares www.joneswares.com has several wool pants and tights that look like they'd be good for running in. I'm going to order the Trail pants (cuz I think I can wear them at work, on the bike commute, and for running) soon.
