Fav yarn haunts; Fraggle Rock 'n Roll scarf

Now that I have spent an embarrassing amount of money on yarn and snooped around every local yarn shop in the Valley, I have decided that my favorite haunt is Unwind. I love Lani's Needlepoint in Studio City and the classes there are wonderful -- but that's largely because Linda is such a neat lady. The Stitch Cafe is very nice, too, but every time I've been there it's crowded and hard to move around all the other yarn sluts. (You know you are.) Unwind is big and bright and comfortable and no one ever follows you around or makes you feel you've overstayed your visit.

When Shannon and Karman came over on Thursday for Survivor and pizza (mmmmm, pepperoni trio....) I gave Karman the finished Fraggle Rock n' Roll Scarf. Here she is modeling it on the sofa. Click for big:

Fraggle Rock 'n Roll scarf: Paton's Divine on size 15 needles, with some Lion Brand fun fur stranded in here and there to make stripes. Very plush and soft and raggedy-chic.
