New Store in Portland!
There has been a bit of a blogging hiatus. I started out the summer strong, but finished the year pretty weak. Blah blah blah…holidays, blah blah blah…real life, blah blah blah…lazy. There, now we’re all caught up.
Since last post with a FO, I had a small flurry of accomplishment. I didn’t do any holiday knitting. Knitting on a deadline stresses me out. I get enough of that at work, and knitting is not supposed to be work. So, I just knit what I wanted to knit, and enjoyed the process. Project photos are up on Ravelry (user TheYarnTraveler).
What really caught my attention and brought me out of blogging hibernation was something that popped up on KnitMap this week. There is a new yarn store coming to Portland, called Yarnia. According to their site, they’re opening February 2nd, at SE 42nd and Division. It gets better…its not your average yarn store. You can custom blend your fibers, colors, and yarn weights, and its all sold by the pound, not the skein.
I should just have enough time to pop in and check it out before Matt and I leave for Mexico on the 4th. I’m taking my Noro socks (toe-up, two at a time, based on the universal pattern) with me to work on between margaritas.
