    Where do you shop for supplies?

    Thursday, June 26, 2008, 03:35 PM [General]

    Right now, I'm in the midst of a full-blown knitting addiction. It's bad. To the tune of about $150 in less than a week bad. I've made three trips to stores between Orlando and Cincinnati on my way home from vacation just to buy instructional books, needles and some yarn to play with. You could say I was bit by the bug so to speak. BAD...

    Now, I'm on the hunt for the best way to store all of my new goodies. Google has not been my friend in terms of finding knitting totes and/or bags because all sorts of things come up. I remember loving the designs of a tote bag company at TNNA while I was there, but forgot their name. If you know of a cool tote place for knitting goods, please let me know!

    Meanwhile, I did notice that we now have this handy dandy Craft Directory at the bottom of every page. If you're looking for a store in a new location or searching for a specific product, it might just have the information you need. I've been browsing it this afternoon and have found a local store that I did not even know existed. I know what I'll be doing this weekend.

    If you haven't had a chance, yet, check out the Craft Directory. If you have a store, I'm sure you can contact them to have your information added. It's just one more way to connect all of us crafters!

    Dear Ginger
    If you have not found a bag yet there is sites you can go to that I find absolutely great I am a avide crocheter more than knitting, and i have stored my yarn in space saver bags when not in use(I have about 25 bags of yarn put up).
    The sites I go to are AnniesAttic or Herrschners. There are a few more but these are my true favorite sites.
    Hope the info was helpful.

    Ginger, Are you looking for something to carry your supplies in when you travel or something to store them in when you are at home? Kim

    Well, you can knit yourself a bag :) The Vogue Knitting On The Go series of books has a couple of really nice bag books you could try.

    You'll be felting next....
