new LYS!

so..class gets out, and my train doesn't leave for an hour...so i wander two blocks south on State St (That Great Street (tm) ) and take a gander at Loopy Yarns. they are still kinda setting things up, putting in some finishing touches, but it's great. the prices are FOB. 220 for 6:45, fixation for $5.45, lorna's laces shepard sock for $9.75...they have lots of Cascade, Berroco, Lorna (tons of LL! all kinds!) and many other odds and ends...even the Addis seemed to be decently priced. so i would definitely go back. without my wallet. we should plan a knitty meetup, Mitten and everyone else :D so yeah...this came home with me:

Isn't it a great LYS? Very reasonably priced, but too dangerous to the wallet to either work, live, or go to school nearby!

When I get my lazy butt and go to Chicago to see my friend, I'm kidnapping you and you'll be showing my way to that fabulous new LYS!

One good turn deserves another.
