Knitting again

west of Toronto you will find Oakville

a sweet place with a very sweet wool shop



only pure materials, mostly from Peru

silk, alpaca, cotton, merino, sheep wool and many more natural yarns


in the most amazing color ranges


if you are in the neighbourhood you should definately go out there and visit this lovely shop


I couldn't resist the blue-grey and red skeins on the right


Saskia, the friendly lady who owns the shop, winded these balls of yarn for me


and so it happens that, after a lot of crochet, for a change I am knitting again

and I love it

~ enjoy the sunny weekend! ~

    Very nice. I'm going to Canada to visit dh's family in a couple of weeks - I'll have to look around in the area I'll be in to see if I can find any yarn stores. :)

    Knitting is my first love, but you have inspired me to crochet again! Isn't it lovely to know how to do both!
