LYS Tour, Day 2


Wow!!! What a great turn out. I arrived at noon and hit the floor running. We have met so many fantastic people! And that's what this whole thing is about - people. Not that I'm unhappy about sales but it really is the people that make this whole thing worth doing. Our Saturday regulars even braved the masses and came to hang out for the day.

We had a surprise this morning with the arrival of our new ShiBui sock yarn. Yes, I threw myself into the box and rolled in it before putting it on the shelf (a bad habit of mine). ShiBui has its own mill so they have a very unique twist to their merino superwash and it is beautimus!!! They also have some great pattern support - wraps, shrugs, baby booties, etc. If you are touring, be sure to take a look.

Tonight, the VYT gang is going to Kari's for some after-tour libations and much deserved "west and wewaxation", to quote Elmer Fudd. We aren't sure if Sunday's crowd will be like todays but we are guessing that there should be at least a few visitors trying to get those last few shops in. Can't wait!
