Not sure what this will become yet. And my Madil Kid Seta, which is intended for the Fiber Trends <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fibertrends.com\/viewer\/patterns\/AC73x.htm\">Cocoon Lace Scarf<\/a>.<br \/>\nAnd another needle! A lovely lady named Carol asked me earlier in the week if I would Flash my Needle Stash. (She thinks she&#8217;s the only one with a needle problem \ud83d\ude09 So I shall flash it, later in the week. When I have time to track them all down! I may also Flash my Knitting book stash at a later date.<br \/>\nAnyway, back on track.<br \/>\nWe got the poor shop assistant at Tapestry Craft to take our picture.<br \/>\n<center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_5782.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_5782.JPG\" width=\"398\" height=\"299\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center><br \/>\nGood Lord, I have poor posture! From left to right, Donni, Jussi and I.<br \/>\nWe headed on down to the Queen Victoria Building, where Jussi bought us morning tea. As we were eating, a lady walked past. Jussi says &#8220;One skein wonder!&#8221; Lo and behold, it was <a href=\"http:\/\/lisagdesigns.blogspot.com\/\">Lisa G<\/a>. So she joined us for morning tea, then we all headed down to Kinokuniya. It&#8217;s a huge bookshop, full of gorgeous books and trinkets and all sorts of lovely stuff. I hadn&#8217;t been there before, but I can guarantee that I will be back!!<br \/>\nI picked up two Japanese craft books. Yes, all the text is in japanese, but the diagrams are pretty comprehensive!<br \/>\n<center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_5793.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_5793.JPG\" width=\"398\" height=\"299\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center><br \/>\nThe one on the left has a variety of cute little things in there.<br \/>\n<center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_5796.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_5796.JPG\" width=\"398\" height=\"299\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_5798.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_5798.JPG\" width=\"397\" height=\"302\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center><br \/>\nThose are from the book on the left.

I think we&#8217;ll go back there in the school holidays.<br \/>\nI had to leave the girls then so I could come home and chauffer Em around, but thanks girls, I had a great day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning, I met up with Donni and Jussi, and we went to Tapestry Craft&#8217;s big sale. 25% off all yarn and needles!
