New Yarn!

Posted in Knitting by admin on the March 25th, 2008

photoWell, I’ve actually had this yarn for two months, but it still feels new to me. I was visiting the East Coast and decided I had to stop at one shop (at least!). I chose The Yarn Lounge in Richmond, VA. What a great shop! It is located in a very charming part of town with lots of small, locally-owned boutiques and shops. The owner (and her dog) and an employee were busy at work on a rainy day. They were very friendly and had some beautiful yarn.

I chose to buy some Fleece Artist (pictured here). I divided it in half when I got home, and started working on the Coreolis Sock in Cat Bordhi’s new book “New Pathways for Sock Knitters.” I finished the first sock (picture coming soon, I promise!) and I had enough yarn to make it almost a knee-high! Wow. Thanks, Fleece Artist. And the colors, oh so pretty!
