Falling Down

January 27th, 2009 · 5 Comments

I started the traveling scarf last night. Unfortunately the originator had used a chunky yarn and all I had onhand was worsted. I had two choices for red worsted as well. I even samples both of them. No go. Looked sleezy next to the chunky, especially on the size 11US needles.

So today at lunch I headed over to my office LYS, Seaport Yarn and perused their selection of bulky red yarns.

Do I need to say that I left with more than a skein of yarn for a scarf?

    Heh and I got to see the lovely yarn in person! It was great running into you on the ferry last night. After a day slaving in the cubicle, I really needed to see a knitter-friend!

    There’s nothing wrong with stash enhancement! :) Nice choices, I can’t wait to see what you do with it. :)

    Hey, we all need a little yarn pick-me-up at this time of year.
