my LYS

all i talk about is yarn related things now...it is sad. I don't even post in my regular non-knitting blog...

well onto more yarn talk. Three skeins of the Quick & Chunky was brought over to me...in dark gray. It's really thick yarn...It had a pattern for a hat on there, I decided to swatch it with my No. 10 needles to see if it would work as a substitue. If not, I shall take it to make the crochet version of the calorimetry.

I continued weaving in the ends to Helen's Scarf...boy is it taking forever...as it turns out, I could have just carried the yarn when it's one row of color change...but the thing is...i'm working on it with turns...so when i turn it...I have to use the new color...am i suppose to twist the color change at the last stitch? I think this is something i'll have to think about.

went into my LYS...it's ran by a darting/mousey looking lady...but no matter she carries thin yarn that i can touch...I shall be visiting again that's for sure...it's not as nicely kept, like there's no readily readable label...so i'm guessing I'll have to ask around. Maybe I'll take our cook with me. She seems friendly and happy.
