Mountain Yarns

The wedding in the Catskills was lovely. It truly reflected the interests and values of the young couple. (Photo taken by the hubster.)



Since we had a few hours before the wedding on Saturday, we explored the area and guess what?! We found a yarn store! What a surprise!



This is the owner of Mountain Yarns--the very talented Tina.



She spins



and weaves



and has the coziest shop full of goodies.







And I didn't want Tina to think that I was a brash, rude New Yorker--so, of course, I had to buy some "courtesy yarn." Just think of me as a one-person NYC Committee of Politeness.



The yarn is handspun and dyed by Tina and is a combination of wool, bamboo and angora. I think this yarn is asking to be My So Called Scarf.
