Last week when we zipped through Mobile from Biloxi on our way to Pensacola, we made a quick stop at The YarnHaus (I've also seen this place called Heidi's YarnHaus) on Airport Blvd.
They had a really nice selection, and a sale was going on, too - which helped when I wanted to buy a skein of Plymouth Yarn's "Foxy", which usually goes for $27.99. I made this fabulous boa out of it (four knits on #17 needles) - I'll post a pic of it soon. We named it 'Tcotchke', because it's a furry-feel, and it's Tchotchke's colors too!
I got:
Plymouth Yarn in "Foxy", Idena in "Happy" in Party color, Crystal Palace in Squiggle - red and white, and Crystal Palace in Splash - Sable.
The YarnHaus also has a membership that you can buy - it's like the discount cards at Barnes and Noble or Books-A-Million, where for a year, you receive a certain percentage off. Although I don't live in Mobile, we're usually there so often that it paid for me to go ahead and get it. Yay! A new yarn shop to visit!
More yarn!
