At the first store we got a "passport" and each store stamped it. If you had a full passport you have a chance to win one of those prizes. They are supposed to get together Mon. to draw prizes. The five of us did get together and plan how we were going to do the trip though.<BR/>It was a good road trip, about 275 miles round trip. Sorry, know idea how many kilometers that would be! <BR/><BR/>When I first started knitting I thought KS was a wasteland as far as yarn stores were concerned. There are a lot more than I thought.<BR/><BR/>Sure you can come! The more the merrier!

We don't have as many as you. On the other hand, we don't have as much distance as you either... Hey, can I come on your next one?Jo at Celtic Memory Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00463172440388610300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-710582117958777933.post-35981079668045364312007-11-15T08:10:00.000-06:002007-11-15T08:10:00.000-06:00Great stuff!
