Nope not a skein or ball so far. We went to Berkeley today and I did look at some in Stone Mountain Daughter Fabrics but I didn&#8217;t buy any. The problem is that I&#8217;ve now been knitting for just under five years and my stash is at saturation point, I have enough to knit anything I fancy so I&#8217;m now very selective with new yarn.<\/p>\n<p>So I guess I&#8217;ll buy some at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artfibers.com\">Art Fibers<\/a> when I go there, although I have lot of yarn from them in the stash too. So I&#8217;ll be looking out for some more Kyoto I think.<\/p>\n<p>Someone who understands where I&#8217;m coming from and has been very good in knitting from her stash is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yarnagogo.com\">Rachael<\/a>! We met up with Rachael and Lala had great pizza, in fact I think that pizza could defeat the world! Certainly I could only manage one and a half slices! We also met most of their menagerie except for Digit, whom I really hope comes home soon. They have a lovely hose and wow, Rachael has such an organised yarn room! She claims it&#8217;s not tidy but since my yarn room looks like someone did a controled explosion of yarn in there, trust me her room is tidy!<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow is Andy&#8217;s 42nd birthday! So it&#8217;s a trip to the Haight and the big Amobea Records there. I imagine I&#8217;ll buy some dvds, and some Mountain Ocean coconut body lotion. I ran out of that a few months back so will be good to stiock up.<\/p>\n<p>Other future highlights of the week are ImagiKnit and a combined manicure and pedicure!<\/p>\n<p>Oh and the feather and fan scarf in 4ply cashmere by HandMaiden is going well. I&#8217;ve been too tired to work on it since the flight but am sure I&#8217;ll get some more knit this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We arrived in San Francisco yesterday afternoon and it seemed a lot quieter at the airport than in previous years.
