Northampton-pics and yarn porn --MORE PICS & a video!

i don’t know…that trucker guy seems like he might be kinda naughty! :wink:

:roflhard: :roflhard: :roflhard:

And we like 'em naughty, too! :eyebrow:

lol i didn’t suggest we didn’t…just thought it deserved to be pointed out! :rofling:

You centers of population density are just not fair. I WISH I had an entrepenuerial bone in my body - and tons of dough - 'cause if I did I’d start a GIGANTIC lys here in BFE middle-of-nowhere Kansas (don’t get me wrong - I love where I live) - This knitting thing just keeps getting more and more expensive - I foresee many many flights to parts yet undiscovered just to buy yarn. The DH doesn’t know what he’s in for.

So where exactly is this nirvana of yarn - Webs???

are you in western KS?..or at least far from the KC area?

oh yeah - western KS - I know there are great shops in the eastern end of the state - Wildflower in Manhattan, Yarn Barn in Lawrence and Knitwit and The Studio in KC - I hear there’s a really good shop in Omaha - Yes?

Nonetheless, it takes a real commitment to venture out. I’m in Hays and we have a small but dedicated quilting shop that stocks more and more knitting supplies every day - but it’s frustrating - ya know? So much to knit - so little time. :frowning:

there are a couple of great ones in omaha and the one that is my favorite (actually NOT the one that most people know about) is EXPANDING!!! The one everybody knows about is stocked to the gills (though a little less so as they are having a clearance sale and i am doing everything i can to relieve them of their supply of malabrigo!) but is crowded and dark.

My favorite one is bright and sunny with funky furniture and decorations. sorted by color instead of brand (which i like a lot!) and is just generally delightful. AND THEY ARE GETTING BIGGER!!! :cheering: :happydance:

yeah that’s what i need :rollseyes:

Ingrid, please identify the yummy hand dyed alpaca yarn. I think I’m in love! :heart: :inlove: :heart:

Missing this thread is what I get for being “Biusy” for the past few weeks…

laughs You guys rawk :slight_smile:

Its by The Great Adirondack Yarn Company. I didn’t see it on Webs site, but when I called, I was able to order a third :oops: over the phone. It is luscious!!! Here is a better picture:

I FINALLY got to watch the northampton video today…had to download it before it would play…just wanted to say

“HI BACKATCHA, JEREMY!!!”
:lol: :heart:

:smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

just realized that Amy is Ingrid

No, we are two entirely different people. Amy is the young pretty one, whose picture is also on the home page.

I’m the short haired one in the sweater, no so young. :rofling:
