Yet another yarn store in the area closed this last weekend. The owner decided to retire, which is better to hear than they had to close for lack of business.  I went in on Saturday and I am so sad I didn’t know about this store earlier, the women working there were so nice. I’m sorry to say this isn’t always the case in this area, especially if you aren’t a regular customer.ÂÂ
I did buy some yarn at 50% off, almost all with a specific intent, some for socks for CIC, some for a purse, some for shawls, my favorite was this:
Patterns, the price on the patterns was 4 for $2 – who could resist – I’m actually surprised I didn’t walk out with more patterns. The ones I did get were vintage baby patterns or Fiber Trends, including a couple of Evelyn Clark patterns. I also picked up a couple new tools, including: a darning egg, a hand crank drill for making twisted cords, and a WPI tool.
This means I did not complete “Use What You Have Month”, but I have no regrets. It is not very often you get a chance at a sale like this.
Sounds like you got some very nifty stuff – and I agree, definitely not a sale you come across every day!
Sounds like a good deal!
