A little eye candy here. We took to the crew for a day in Manhattan to do some exploring, and went to SoHo for the first time.
One destination was inspired by one of my more innocuous New Year's resolutions: Knit SOMETHING. I caught the knitting bug from Sarah's blog and need to get going. Purl Soho and Purl Patchwork are sister stores just a few doors apart. Their shops are as enchanting as their websites, which have such great free downloadable tutorials. I would describe them as pastel hobbit holes, full of customers bearing that eccentric and ethereal knitting air about them; colorful and multi-textured and free-spirited. I'm profiling, I know. Please know that I mean all of these things as compliments!
I felt a little self conscious walking into the place with my copy of Knitting for Dummies under my arm. I'm not kidding.Haven't uploaded pics of purchases yet. Will Do. I may need some accountability here.
Patiently waiting.
Got the sweetest Japanese fabric, Kokka, for a bib for a brand new little cousin in Germany.
I am in love with all of their prints and need to track down some cheaper yardages. Ebay maybe?
