catch-up

Saturday, May 10th, 2008 | adventures, crochet, knitting, yarn

It was great having Ysolda here this week, we had lots of fun! Let’s see how much I can cram into this post – mostly photos.

We did lots of knitting on the various forms of the TTC.

Ysolda got two awesome dresses at the Clothing Show (there’s a photo of the other one on her blog). Her sweater pattern will be forthcoming on the blog as well..

We went ribbon shopping at Mokuba:

And yarn shopping at Romni (where I got the fibranatura from the last post).

On her last day here, Ysolda came with me to work, and we sat and chatted and crocheted.

And then it was time to say goodbye, sniff.

Now I really want to go visit Edinburgh!

Oh my goodness! Looks like you had a great time. The next time I visit Toronto, I’ll have to head to the places that you’ve mentioned. Looks like heaven.

It’s really great to have a friend from afar, and one who knits! Wow! I love her wardrobe. She has a style that’s all her own, that’s for sure.

Your workplace looks so cute and quirky! I love those chairs! And all the yarn, and ribbon….

Thanks for letting me know where Ysolda got her dress I probably won’t buy the same one but it’s inspiring me to make something similar.

edit: silly me, thinking that by The Clothing Show you meant a shop, rather than the actual Show. I looked it up online and there’s no way I’d find out who made her dress without clicking every link! I’ll have to drop her a line on Ravelry.

I drive past that bus stop in the picture every day! Toronto has a fair number of knitting celebs that I occasionally see but two together at a bus stop near my house!?
