I went on a holiday to Tasmania. And I always like to buy craft materials as souvenirs.
On my very first morning, I went for a run and came across the Salamanca Wool Shop, and I requested Tasmanian sock yarn – I bought the skein to the left from Wattlebird Yarn.
Next up I went to A Stitch in Time, where I bought the Sampler (exclusive to them) and the scissors. I have been wanting sharper scissors to make my pin stitches work better.
And then in Launceston, I went to Knit, Needles and Wool. This place was full of yarn and there was a group meeting at the back – it all was very welcoming. Once again, I looked for sock yarn from Tasmania, and found White Gum Wool – the one I have is 80% merino and 20% silk. I am very keen to start knitting with this one.
