I'm moving this blog to:

It's a bit of a mess right now as I get my head around Wordpress and dust off my long-neglected FTP skillz.

Paris, Noro, Music... you do the math

Kureyon
Yesterday, I stumbled on the knitting department in Le Bon Marché just as a Sufjan Stevens track on my mp3 player reached a beautiful crescendo... I swear it was almost spiritual.

I walked away with some Kureyon for another Short Row Hat and my first skein of Silk Garden for an Edgar scarf. I must have got a bit lost in the moment though because they came to €21, which I'm sure is well over the odds.

What's French for spit? Or to be more precise "stop it, I'm covered in spit"?

Silk Garden.  I have no idea why I didn't just take one photo with both skeins.

I'm jealous. My friend was in Paris in July and she went into Le Bon Marche to buy me yarn...but she's not a knitter and so she freaked out at the sheer amount of yarn and left with nothing. She says she will give me a gift certificate for Christmas instead. Boo.

Shopping in Bon Marche for yarn is a nightmare, so expensive, its cheaper to order online, though there are times when you just need to have something NOW!!
