So I did, in fact, go to The Needle Emporium in Ancaster, ON with the Elf yesterday.
Oh.
My.
Gods.
This was the first time that I've been to what I would consider a *real* yarn store and they had so many things that I've only heard about online - so many pretty yarns! I had about 8 different kinds of sock yarn in my hands at one time or another- it was SO hard to choose, but choose I did!
It's SOOOOO PRETTTY . . . *drools* :D Sock yarn, of course. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. :D
I also bought this:
I'm thinking of knitting myself a house tie or scarf or something (I had actually meant to buy the yarn for it at the Needle Emporium, but they don't carry Cascade 220. I still have yet to see it in person. Boo.).
Aaaand, guess what *I* did?
Okay, I know that's not the *best* picture ever, but I finished Kitty's Twinkletoes! Yaaay! I'll get a better picture when I give them to her - an action shot, hopefully, because as a friend of mine pointed out when he saw the picture, they look like sleds. :P
That's about it for now - I'm still working on the Mystery Stole (Actually, I haven't gotten any farther - I had a bit of a row mix-up, but I think I've straightened it out now). More to come when I get a little farther on the stole. And I am still knitting the Viking Socks - I'll post again with them. :D
