Is there anything more fun than visiting new yarn stores??? I personally detest shopping for clothes, shoes, etc. But shopping for yarn… what’s not to like!! There is no trying on and having to look at those extra pounds.
So I am thankful that despite southern Florida’s heat, there is a yarn store in Naples, Castle Creek Fiber Studio, and a yarn store in Fort Meyer, Hooked On Ewe. The Naples store is a 25 minute drive; the Fort Meyer store is a 45 minute drive. I go weekly to the knit night the Naples store. I don’t expect to visit the Fort Meyer store often since it’s pretty far away. I met a Cincinnati knitting friend who is snowbirding in Fort Meyer there before grabbing lunch.
I did see a yarn that I now feel I really need to get. 😆 So in 3 weeks when we take our Cincinnati friends that are spending Feb with us back to the Punta Gorda airport, I’m going to make Tom stop so I can buy the yarn to make a summer top. Gee, one more project to add to my 2021 project plan.😜. My friend is already making the top on display so I feel like I have someone that might help me with questions.
South Florida has turned out to be good for this northern knitter. I’m enjoying the opportunities these LYSs are providing.
Knitting Is So Fun
