OT: my trip to NY and my obsession with knitting...
So I get to NY and the first thing I tell my cousin is that I needed to go yarn shopping...of course everyone wanted to go shopping for other stuff firstm so tuesday i get desperate and beg my cousin and her grandma to take me to one of the yarn shops nearby..the nearest one was Yarn connection and to my dismay it was closed!! butttt the day after that we went to soho and walked all the way from canal street to Purl Soho in the cold weather, and I finally bought my yarn!! pictures will be put up when I come home....I bought some cashsoft, peruvian wool, merino wool, Lornas laces shepherd striping socks, Manos hancrafted dyed yarn, and another Rowan wool that they had on discount....anddddd a Stitch and Bitch Knitter's guide book....not just only that, but on our way uptown riding the M5 bus we met this wonderful lady who was knitting a gorgeous vest with alpaca, we talked all the way to 42nd street...she was such a nice lady....and then today! watching the tv, I saw Amy on Knitty Gritty!! on HGTv...people here think i'm crazy obsessed with knitting...but hey! maybe I am!....I've already taught 3 girls here and they loved it!
