While it was a bit sad to leave without yarn, I meant to go back on Monday or Tuesday to browse and pet yarn, but there were just too many other things to do during our short visit.
Once I was home, I found that I really like the sharpness of the HiyaHiya circular I bought, and thought it would be a good idea if I ordered a couple more sizes and cable lengths. I had a little trouble with the online cart, so I called The Loopy Ewe to place my order. Lynn was so helpful and pleasant to talk to (just like all of the Loopy Elves) that when she asked if that was it for my order, several skeins of Julie Spins MCN also fell into my cart. I'm so happy to be a Wayfarer and have No Regrets.
That is definitely a Win-Win! I hope those lovely skeins are going to become something for you - especially No Regrets. Those colors are just so darned happy!
ReplyDeleteNow that is a perfect ending to the story! I love the colors that just happened to fall into you cart -- and I can't wait to see them all knit up. XO
ReplyDeleteI am dismayed at your restraint while in the store but my faith in you is restored by that yarn you bought over the phone! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous yarn! I can't believe I didn't stop at Loopy Ewe while visiting Fort Collins several years back. Must get my daughter to bring us back again!
ReplyDeleteNow, that is the best ending to a vacation ever! I LOVE the colors that just fell into your cart *wink* Nicely done!!
ReplyDeleteYour Hitchhiker looks great!
ReplyDeleteSounds like, in the end, you got the best of both worlds. :-)
Those yarn colors are gorgeous! Hope you have fun knitting something special!
ReplyDeleteLoopy steered you in the right direction!The yarns are fabulous! I love my HiyaHiya needle set. I've used no other needles since their purchase.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I happened to have bought a skein in Bermuda (don't remember the brand) to try my first Hitchhiker!
ReplyDeleteI believe you, I was in nyc three times before I hit purl soho! it's hard to get to a lys when your with people who don't knit. glad you got needles though :) There is always a next time right??
ReplyDeleteWe have someone new in our knitting group, having just moved here from CO a few months ago with her family -- she used to work at The Loopy Ewe!!
