Anyways it was fun. The sun was shining and I spent most of the day out in front of the store knitting with other knitters. I didn't have any books, inventory, rearranging etc to do so when there were no customers we sat and knit. When we did have customers they joined us to sit and knit after shopping. I am going to buy a patio furniture for out in front of the store as it is a perfect place to sit and knit or look at pattern books on nice days. We have great shade from the many trees, a nice view and the breeze off the ocean. I can't think of a better place to relax and enjoy knitting. Here is a picture of Mom and Carrie sitting knitting.
Mom is working on a heirloom Lace shawl for our new grandbaby coming and Carrie is working on a dishcloth. I was working on a Noro Shawl but I am not in the picture.( I took it)
Here is a picture of the storefront with the flowers blooming.
Here is Carrie's finished dishcloth. She is quite pleased with it. Whipped it up in about an hour.
Carrie is the owner of the store I rent for Fun Knits Yarn Shop. She also has a Bed and Breakfast and Cottage rental for Vacations. I have added a link to the home page at funknits.com You can contact Carrie to get inforamtion about her rental's. This is a great vacation spot for knitter as you couldn't get any closer to our great little yarn store.

You can count me in for knitting in front of the store on a nice day.
As for the new yarn....part of me hopes it is there by Wednesday when I am over, and part of me doesn't. Not sure if I really need more temptation right now.
Your store is adorable! If I'm ever in your area, I'll be sure to add it to my list of 'must see attractions' ... We're in Ontario, but we plan to take a trip out West sometime in the not too distant future. :)
