My Boston trip souvenir

May 22, 2008 13 Replies

I went to Boston on a business trip for my job and had little snatches of time to spend exploring the city. I made it to two yarn stores, but only one of them was truly a knitting store--Newberry Yarns. It was a tiny little place, not much bigger than my living room and was jam packed from floor to ceiling with yarn, needles and books. I got two balls of yarn JoJoLand sock yarn to make myself a pair of socks as a souvenir from my trip! :-)

Hey Lisa!

I just got back from a week long visit to Boston, and I went to Newberry Yarns, too! I got some lovely merino/camel sock yarn.

Mirjam. . . I've not had camel milk, but HAVE had cows and goat's milk. LOVE camel wool too! Hugs, Noreen

Thanks, Bernadette. I have no real *need* for wool socks in South Carolina, even in our so-called winters, but I couldn't resist. Plus, the good thing about yarn is it one of my few addictions that isn't fattening. :-D
