They recently changed ownership though. Is Shelley the old longtime owner? Now its called Knitting Etc and from what I hear, they've REALLY expanded. The woman I bought my wheel from stocks handspun and hand dyed yarns there.<BR/><BR/>Oh and fwiw, Patty at RFF sells Ashford Wheels, at least she did the last time I was there. There was bunches of them, still in boxes up on the very very top shelf in the barn. But yeah, Susan's I think has a better variety for you to try out before you choose. And The Fold is a great choice too, they have even more choices (AND they stock Socks That Rock in what seems every imaginable colorway. I would just want to swim in that stuff!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11679111.post-1146041745012255572006-04-26T01:55:00.000-07:002006-04-26T01:55:00.000-07:00You sure you don't want a wheel???

I really love the color.

I just really enjoy reading about what other knitters in the area are up to, and so far you are only the third local knitting blog I've located, so thank you for your list!<BR/><BR/>Laura (aka YarnThrower)YarnThrowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13261414607842071918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11679111.post-1146002240093883792006-04-25T14:57:00.000-07:002006-04-25T14:57:00.000-07:00Simply because you said so, I'll repeat: you do no...Simply because you said so, I'll repeat: you do not need a wheel ;).<BR/><BR/>Yeah!!!

And also thinking about scanning the classifieds and of course, keeping an eye on FreeCycle. <BR/><BR/>Carla, next time you're down Ithaca-way, pop in at Knitting Machines Etc and say Hi to Shelley!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04278529449974055377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11679111.post-1145994574926817242006-04-25T12:49:00.000-07:002006-04-25T12:49:00.000-07:00Marengo, Illinois is home of The Fold.

I certainly wouldn't be volunteering to help you load a wheel into your car. Nope. Not me. I'm not an enabler.Terbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18369167230239017381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11679111.post-1145994328436710912006-04-25T12:45:00.000-07:002006-04-25T12:45:00.000-07:00OH COOL!!

I just finally got mine after window shopping, longing, hoping, for one for well over 18months. I'm LOVING it honestly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
