I apologize. I forgot to send Horbert out with the Creator and the girls. You see, they went on a yarn crawl last weekend. I had plans for him to document the secret agenda as they proceeded along the route. Three girls and The Creator visited four yarn shops.
Table Rock Llama and Fiber Studio
No lie. The Creator secretly put this on the agenda because the shop supports the Men's Rocky Mountain Knitiing retreat. Plus, he want some panda silk for some silly notion that he will be creating a blanket out of it. He also wanted some of that dye for me alpaca. The girls were all in a twitter with the skeins with a silver fiber running through it. I like silver. And do you think the Creator bought me a few skeins?
Yarn Outlet
The best thing about this store was the bakery next to it. They gave away free cookies and The Creator bought chocolate things and a cherry cheese cake thing to share with other two humans. Oh, he purchased three skiens of yarn here. Some Kramer acrylic cotton stuff to make some boot socks. It's teal. He didn't find anything else in the store to purchase. They do have loads of cotton. If he needs to, he will go back and buy cotton.
The Pita Pit
The Girls found the pita pit. He had a lovely pita stuffed with cheese steak. It was ok, but I shouldn't waste space on something that was ok. Really. It is beneath me. I don't eat anyway.
Green Valley Weavers
This was a quaint little shop with loads of fiber. I think the girls liked it more than the Creator. He did buy some more dye for me and some mochi for that damn square blanket I can't do anything with. I can't wear it or wrap myself inside it. I'm thinking it will look fabulous leaving my room for another room in the house.
Knitter's Kove
This was the find of the day. It had some panda silk and The Creator found his yarn for the iPad 2.0 cover. It's blue and matches his the cover that just closes. The yarn will give him more protection when he puts it in a bag or something. I hope it looks sharp. He should sell the pattern on ravelry or something because it will rock. I am just saying. I will also look right smart with this iPad. I'm going to try and blog from it one day. I understand you just swipe your finger across... oh, I guess Horbert will have to do that. Oh. and I almost forgot this luxury alpaca yarn The Creator bought. He is going to make a scarf with that. Something lacy to drape around my neck. I know I will look super sexy in said scarf. I have called dibs on said scarf. Just so everyone knows. I have to find me a doll to party with as 'NSync girl has been lost.
