I stopped into Orcas Island's LYS called Poppies Fine Yarns. It was a sweet little shop with a super warm and welcoming vibe. The owner was down to earth and kind and showed me a dangerous little cubby of new local yarns she carried. Amongst the delish pile I found a heavenly skein of buttery soft cream colored alpaca and merino. It was made by her friend, she told me, who delighted in naming each skein after its wooly contributor. In this case it was Prada and Chanel! I would have loved to meet Prada and Chanel but our time there was coming to an end! After careful consideration I chose that skein, only $24!!! for handspun! and some new mission falls wood buttons for my Feb gal sweater! Yay!
