Saturday Thoughts

I have said before that there are no yarn shops within an hour’s drive from my house. I found one that is 47 minutes away…..yay me ! “Cheers to Ewe” is in Huntersville, NC. A warm and inviting shop tucked away in a sprawling mall of many buildings, run today by Ladianne and Sarah. It was a beautiful day for a drive and a new adventure.

a sock class waiting to start…..
New yarney friends, Wanda and Kathy………..
Ladianne tallying up my treasures……….
Kathy and Wanda, yarn and lunch…….who could ask for a better day ?

I guess I would have to say I’m sort of like Will Rogers……I’ve never met a knitter or quilter I didn’t like. To find new friends who have many things in common with you and enough differences to make it fun getting to know them.

And, I have to say, I got to fondle yarn……..Malabrigo and Madelyn Tosh yarns in person…..after seeing them on numerous knitting podcasts, it was like meeting celebrities. Cheers to Ewe has such a varied and luscious inventory……I just wanted to say “I’ll take one of everything”.

I can’t wait to cast on………

oh, look………..shiny
