Today is our anniversary and Craig had the day off, so we went on a road trip to Ancaster. In reality, it was to go to The Needle Emporium which is *in* Ancaster. Saying we went to Ancaster makes it sound more couply and less all about me.
I finally tried on my Throwback I had decided that if it didn’t fit and I couldn’t block it to fit, I’d just be giving it away since it would be less work to just knit another! Fortunately, it seems to fit nearly perfectly!! Lynn snapped a couple pics :)
About 5cm more of ribbing, then on to sleeves!! I’m even more excited to get to finishing now that I’ve tried it on.
We had lunch at the Coach & Lantern Craig is proclaiming the injustice of evidence that he’s carb loading today. You do you, boo, I’m not gonnna judge.
It’s consistently good food there and it’s just up from the yarn store, so it’s practically perfect.
The ceiling tiles were interesting too.
I bought a few things at Julie’s, not the least is yarn for an Olibane for Mina (the yellow Baby Bamboo) and a little In Threes (Liberty Wool is on sale for $10 - get it while it lasts!!) I am so please that Ramina can wear such a range of colours!
I did buy the Twill & Print pins (who’s surprised?) - the glittery black sheep is my fave! I also let Julie know a couple more faves wdit when she orders again :) A Namaste Interchangeable Buddy Case and the latest Laine magazine are also now in my possession. All in all, a lovely day, not the least for the company.
Staycation success so far.
