On Saturday, I took a trip out to Lexington with Allison and Iris. It was kind of a last minute, thrown together trip- not the carefully calculated yarn crawl we made last time. I needed specific colors of feltable wool for a pair of Felted Clogs (Rav link) for my mom's birthday, and I had a good feeling that ReBelle would have what I needed. This time, I actually managed to bring my camera like a good blogger. Allison was in charge of the picture taking, and I think she did a good job. It's interesting to see what another person chooses to photograph- kind of like seeing the yarn store from another person's perspective.
One of my favorite things about ReBelle- they are mom and baby friendly. I can (and do) nurse Iris pretty much anywhere, but it's really nice to be in a place with a sticker endorsing it right on the window.
I love Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in the semi-solid colors. So pretty!
They also carry alternative menstrual products, earth-friendly toys and clothes, and some fun recycled items.
Iris loves looking at yarn too!
Right now she's thinking "Mama, you're going to buy me some of that Noro, right?"
An inspiring Hey Teach– I might finish mine for next spring after all!
This is the top of a mannequin leg with Allison's reflection in it.
The back of my car finally has paired decreases! Awesome!
It was a fun day, and yes, I got the yarn I needed. I am still waiting to take pictures of Bob's Xmas hat, but I promise it's in the line up for this week. Also, I'll be posting some of my knitting goals for next year. Next year- just a few more days! Yikes!
