On Saturday it seemed as though I had loads of time in SF now it’s our penultimate night here. But it’s been a good few days and I’ve even managed to fit in a couple of visits with bloggers!<\/p>\n
On Monday I met up with the wonderful Claudia<\/a> at ImagiKnit<\/a>. I also met Claudia’s Mom who is just as lovely as her daughter and also a knitter. ImagiKnit is an incredible store and I wish we had one in Cardiff. This was my third visit there, I remember when they only occupied one store, and I still find it overwhelming. They seem to stock everything and more besides! As much as I love going to yarn stores I find it’s a far better experience if you have the company of incredible knitters. Claudia and her mom didn’t seem horrified at the amount of my purchases some of which didn’t count as I was acting as a personal shopper for Jeni…:-)<\/p>\n Tonight we had dinner with the fabulous Rachel<\/a> at Cha Cha Cha where they serve excellent Tapas. It was a very good end to a day that started off with a long bus ride to the Legion of Honor<\/a> to see the ArtWear<\/a> exhibit. So good I bought the catalogue. It’s a bit of a dream of mine to create Wearable Art one day. I just need to get enough time to do it! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Following that we went to Japan Town, had lunch and took a visit to the bookstore in the Japan Centre where I bought the book to make this<\/a>. I also picked up some erasers that look like ring donuts and some cute stationary. Oh and then we went to ImagiKnit again as I had forgotten to pick up some Cascade worsted and some Classic Elite La Grand mohair on Monday…<\/p>\n Sunday I went to Art Fibers and bought eight balls of Sherlock for a cardi and two balls of Fauve for a scarf. Picture to be added. I’m not sure what type of pattern to use for it just yet. Maybe the diagonal scarf?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
