Well, Since I've last been around I finished my mysterious lady capelet for the Pridie Collection... though I was sort of indifferent about the results. I was thinking of frogging it and redoing it, but it serves its purpose of warm shoulders, so either way its not so bad. Perhaps after a season of enjoyment I'll try again.
This week I'll be packing up my gypsy caravan for the city of Kingston; a place that I haven't been in almost 10 years. Though the voyage is mainly for the purpose of my husband's health, I hope to get in a little perusal of what Kingston has to offer a nomadic knitter such as myself.
One place I intend to visit is Wool-Tyme; once the mecca chain store for knitters in Ontario (I used to frequent the one in Peterborough for corking yarns as a girl)it is now reduced to a few obscure locations in some major cities. Though mostly for nostalgia's sake I do intend to search out a few balls of emerald green red heart for another fall cape I intend to make, and some stitch holders and markers as well (as all of mine seem to be occupied, and though a kilt pin does in a pinch, its far too heavy for anything delicate.).
I've seen reviews for other yarn shops just outside of the city, but I think one stop should be enough. Besides, we will probably need to spend some time taking in the sights too!
I'll be back after this voyage is though!
