LYS page

1 comentario »

if you haven’t noticed, there’s a LYS mini-tour page in progress… the plan for the page eventually is to be more than just a list… I’m thinking of adding photos of the store-fronts so people might recognize the area (and see what the parking situation is - or is not, as is often the case!), adding maps, further sorting the shops within their ‘regions’ and maybe expanding to other shops in MN that aren’t in the Twin Cities metro area. note that I am not including Jo-Anns or Michael’s as they’re easy enough to find… but if you know of a general craft store that has a good yarn stock, I’d love to add it to the list.

where am I finding my info? I know there’s a MN-blogger with a list, as well as lists on the Berrocco site and the Guild site. I’m also using the list info on the TCSnB message board (and Yahoo Group) and also some reviews/info gleaned from the MN shops thread at knitty.com.

if you know of any shops to add, you see a mistake, or have thoughts on other info that’d be useful, please leave a comment on this thread. thanks!

switched over to WordPress today. we have categories now - whee!
I screwed up the dates when importing the old entries, so it’s been much fun fixing them all… *rollseyes*

frogged

so, after slowly attempting to un-bind-off the Nakiska, I decided to frog it. It only took a few days to knit up the first time - I figured it’d be quicker to just re-knit it. =]

I have been making progress on the Mother Bear bear - made it thru the head and the back of the sweater - just the pants and feet left, and then sewing it up and stuffing it.

Not much else going on knitting-wise. Everything else is kind of idling - I’m in a ‘can’t start new projects til somethings finished’ state, so I don’t really want to work on anything! gotta love those moments…
