I have a local yarn shop! It’s called Calon Yarns<\/a> and it opened yesterday.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It’s owned and run by Lynne Seymour<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The lovely Lynne with some of her yarn!<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here she is with some of her gorgeous yarns. This shop could be dangerous to my wallet!<\/p>\n

But it’s not only a yarn shop, it’s a craft studio and they have all sorts of classes<\/a> and workshops<\/a> there too.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Of course while I was there I couldn’t resist picking up some yarn<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

ooooh yarn!<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is a lovely, squishy skein of artesano humming bird 100% alpaca in shade AR008, an amazing red mix. It reminds me a little of Colinette’s Fire colourway but is much sweeter, and far less brown, than that. It’s dk weight and the skein is a surprisingly big 150g. There’s also 300m on it.<\/p>\n

I love it! It’s so squishy! Not sure yet what it will become, possibly a beret or some gloves or both. I think it would be really lovely for socks too. But I’m also intrigued as to what kind of a one skein wonder<\/a> it would produce too.<\/p>\n

I’m sure I’ll visiting Calon Yarns again soon!<\/p>\n
