for the ‘Tools of the Trade’ shop hop. here’s a map of the shops - you can rearrange the route to fit your starting point (I love google maps)
I’m starting at Sheepy Yarn and working my way down and around to Amazing Threads. I’ve also added two shops to the route that I’ve been meaning to check out for a while - Double Ewe (my true start, since for me it’s en route to Sheepy) and Knitter’s Palette (since it’s so close to Zandy’s and I never get down that way anymore).
I’ll report back tonight or tomorrow. any bets on if I resist the Dream in Color yarns? (I think almost all the shops are listed as carrying it. I may be doomed!)












Have fun. I’m abstaining this year. I hadn’t heard of Knitter’s Palette. Are we lucky to have so many LYS or what?
It was really nice meeting you today, Christy. (actually, just a few minutes ago ;-) Thanks for adding us to your shop hop!
Hey, now that it’s gotten colder here, Eli’s been wearing the sweater you knit for him last year (Yep, still fits!) and complete strangers have been coming up to me saying what a nice sweater it is. Today at the pumpkin patch a lady came up and said how she liked his sweater, I told her my sister knit it for him and she said she knits too so she can appreciate it even more. Oh! I’ll upload one of the pictures from today into my album on here! Then you can see him sportin’ the sweater….
Okay, just uploaded the pic:

Really cute to see the then & now…
Since I couldn’t go, I’m looking forward to your report! Was it as crazy as the last one?
