Before we set out for the night, I stopped at the local yarn store for their Trick or Treat sale. It was one of those pick-a-discount after they've rung up your purchase deals, and I doubted that I'd get more than 10% off.
I'd been eyeballing this skein of yarn, especially since I saw Jurga's Old Witch Socks on Ravelry. You can't see them if you're not a member -- they're textured socks in a similar colorway and I love, love, love them. I don't know if I'll buy that exact pattern, since I've got books and books of sock patterns already, but I do want something with that kind of texture. (Now watch me use it for a shawl or something completely unrelated!)

I hope you got more than a 10% discount! I know what it's like to debate how much to get when you don't know what your final cost will be. I'd rather know a set discount going in. :-)
ReplyDeleteI have only been knitting since April so this is my first Halloween to miss all the great sales at the LYS near me. I didn't check my email and missed three! I am sad a little, but then like you I might have only gotten 10% which to me isn't really a sale, it just covers the tax. Oh well I will be prepared for next year. :)
ReplyDeleteDT went with friends, so we didn't have to go with her. Hope you get to make your socks, it sounds like a fun idea.
ReplyDeleteGreat Treat!
