Yarn

[firecat]

I've lived here five years and I've never been into the local yarn shop, Creative Hands, until today. pleonastic dropped by there before visiting a couple of weeks ago, and came away with something very pretty, so it has been on my mind. I went in today on the pretext of getting knitting needles to wind jump rings on. I got the knitting needles, but I also ended up getting seduced by this.

The woman who sold it to me claimed I could make a 1-skein scarf out of it. We shall see...

oooOOOOoooo. I've often been beguiled by such things at the local yarn store, but have so far avoided temptation by sternly reminding myself that I Wouldn't Know What To Do With It If I Got It, And Look At That Price, I'll Stick With The Nice Safe Soft Wool Thank You. It's kind of become my yarn store mantra. ;)

I originally picked up something called "Fluff" but put it back quickly when I discovered it cost $23 per unit.
