New Yarn!
March 25, 2008 on 2:29 pm | In Knitting |
Well, 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!

Nice to see you posting again….it has been awhile!! The new yarn looks yummy! Isn’t it addicting, the desire to check out yarn shops while traveling?!!! I’ll have to keep an eye out for this yarn, just the word “fleece” makes it inviting!

Hi Julie,
First of all I wanted to tell you that I really like the website you built for The Textile Shop in Port Hadlock. I visited her store and it’s so light and clean with lots of yummy yarn! I’m intriqued with your new socks by Cat Bordhi. When you get them done, I’d love to post them on my website. I’m doing “socks” on the projects page for Spring. Can’t wait for pictures.
