Nothing Like a Good Yarn Sale


Sometimes it's hard to pass up a good yarn sale. A few weeks ago Knitpicks had a summer year end sale so I had to get some of the Shine worsted and sport yarns.

I'm working on what I call my current "commuting" project with the cherry Shine Sport yarn. It's the ballet camisole from MagKnits. My bus commute is perfect for projects that consist of the endless stockinette stitch. I've gotten really good knitting continental style.

I also purchased some of Brown Sheep Yarns Cotton Fleece and Lamb's Pride Worsted and Bulky yarns from The Sheep Shed Studio. Great prices however not many colors are available and the yarn is labeled "yarn seconds" and discontinued yarns. I've ordered roving from Carol at Sheep Shed and she provides wonderful service.
