yarn..
I picked up some yarn to mix with one of the boa's I am making my flowergirls. The first one I made was so nice looking I didn't think it fair the other two be so plain.
I don't like Cast on Cottage as much as S&S for sure.. today when i went in one of the ladies working at the counter was yelling into the phone (apprently some guy who was doing work for them or selling them yarn was being stupid) so she was yelling and trying to get off the phone with him. She should have just hung up. I litterally walk into the store and she said something and then repeats it like 3 more times getting more evil sounding till she's yelling, then hangs the phone up and huffs.
Only person who said anything to me was the owner once she said "finding what you need?" and that was it. Everytime we walked by each other (close quarters) I was forced to get out of HER way.. um.. yeah.. I actually like the yarn they have their but S&S was so much more open, had way more kits.. also CoC has crappy knitting books if you ask me, none of the ones we all reference in our blogs as our favorites.
Okay I'll stop b}tching. I only spent $11. I wanted to buy more but I found nothing I liked (no patterns I would be caught dead in). I don't think I am being a pattern snob.. well.. maybe I am..

What an unpleasant store to be in. I once popped into Bergere de France and was met with one of the saleswomen ARGUING with a client. It was awful. I turned and left!
P.S. I think you look fabulous in that rehearsal dinner dress! Huzzah!
