Well ... there were some creepy fake sheep.
Some beaded gloves ... imagine making these?!?!
Very cool dyeing stuff. Lots of stuff from a LONG time ago.
I particularly liked the ad on this box of Twink ... washes and dyes at the same time! Last I knew that was an accident.
Some really old sock blockers! There were also some old knitting machines that looked more like mideval torture devices!
A Norman Rockwell advert for Interwoven Socks! I think I need one of these for my house!
A knit Scarecrow by the Atlanta Knitting Guild, complete with crow knitting the scarf!
And of course, another creepy sheep at the exit.
Since I changed by Bead-A-Long project to one that crochets the beads on ... I needed a crcohet hook small enough to fit into the beads. I didn't have any on hand. I went to Jo-Ann's yesterday, but the smallest I found was a #12 ... too big. I found this thread pic at Michael's that looked like an awfully small crochet hook and I think it'll do the trick.
Can't leave the store without some yarn! The Pattons Lace actually has purple in in as well ... it matches my computer/knitting room perfectly!
Very cool day out, had a great time!
Don't forget to join in my Yarn Give-Away until the 15th!!

Looks like a good weekend!
I think the little knit scarecrow is pretty cool!
I like the fake sheep. I used to dream that when I grew up and bought my own house I'd have an upstairs bedroom with green carpet, star painted on the ceiling and a flock of fake sheep. I could imagine myself lying amongst the sheep listening to music and relaxing. Weird, huh?
Sounds like a great weekend. Like the new yarn.
What a fabulous museum. I'm with you on the sheep. lol
That museum sounds really interesting :) Excellent new yarn purchases too!
I had an awesome time, too! I'm going to post my pictures up today after work - though, we have pretty much the same pics. I hope the bead threader works!
