Twice in One Day!



Okay - So the top two pictures give you an idea of what it looks like when you walk into the shop. I don't think it looks as lime green in person - I thought there was a flash on this camera. These two shelving units are the home to Mission Falls - 1824 Cotton and 1824 Wool.


Above, you can see the shop as it looks from the kitchen/classroom area. The top of the slot wall is waiting for Addi Turbos. Do you see the spinning wheel to the left, just before the open door (yes, I know it is mostly hidden by the table)? This is the future home of the Fleece Artist and Hand Maiden yarns - arriving in August. I finally managed to contact someone at Fleece Artist and an order has been placed. I was so excited last Sunday night, I could barely sleep. My husband did not share my enthusiasm!!



Now - this picture - I don't know what to do about his - any suggestions on how to rotate an image would be greatly appreciated. But you can probably tell it's the bathroom. I didn't take any before shots - but imagine brown on brown strie-d walls, vanity and ceiling fan blades. Add one filthy floor. Got the picture. So even sideways, this has got to be better.

This should give readers a fairly good idea of Wales Green and Twilight Magenta. A warning to anyone who likes this colour green and might decide to use it somewhere - on the colour strip, the lighter shade is Celadon. This is the colour I originally purchased. I thought it looked a little more acidy and was lighter. But on the walls it was a pretty gross pale yellow. My mother, unbeknownst to me, tried out Celadon as well and had the same result.

Read on for more pictures.

I have got to visit soon! What building is this, btw? I haven't figured out where you are exactly on Brock St. yet. And Fleece Artist?? OMG. People in Whitby will be spoiled and never want to even touch yarn at places like Michael's ever again!

Very nice. I am coming to work in the Oshawa area for 2 weeks in September, and hopefully will be taking a long term position in the new year. I look forward to Thursday Kniterary Knights.
