So...there's this new yarn shop right around the corner from my house. This could be trouble. I've been there about three times within the week and plan to be there tonight for the Friday night group. Figured that this would be a wonderful way to prep for Christmas gifts. I already have a list of items I wish to make for the holidays. Now I just have to carve out time to make everything.
My current project is a shawl for Mom (Cassie don't tell lol). I chose a wonderful Malabrigo worsted weight yarn in a color called Paris Nights. It's beautiful....dark blue with a touch of forest green. Looks like the deep ocean. Fabulous!
The shop is stocked with KnitPicks, Malabrigo yarns, dyed roving, wool, spindles and an assortment of other fiber fiend goodies.
And best of all...that's not the only yarn shop in town. Yay! The other one is the Old Spinning Wheel shop. I really like it, too.
Old Spinnng Wheel has a nice complement of items like Cascade yarns, wonderful books, and also KnitPicks. They have a group that meets on Thursdays if you're on that side of town. I'm so happy to see fiber enthusiasts have places of their own in our area.
If you're in the Central Texas area, check them both out....Wools & Tools and The Old Spinning Wheel.
