Well worth visiting store when you are in the area! Bought enough Rauma yarn to make a shawl and a vest, so far I have started the shawl and am very pleased with my choice, am curious to wash and block finished item to see the result. Also purchased book “ 52 weeks of sweaters” which has many basic patterns that I want to use to play with color combinations. They were very helpful and what I really loved was that they went back into the warehouse to complete my request for more skeins of a certain dye lot.
