New Yarn Shop

Today I went to a yarn shop here in Oklahoma City.  I had called yesterday to see if they had any sit and knit groups.  Turns out they do...Tuesdays and Thursdays.  So I decided to try it.  It's a longer drive than where I go in Spring, but it's not a bad drive.  Nowhere in OKC is really a bad drive compared to Houston.  I got to the yarn store about 10:30; there was no one there except the two people who run the store.  They were very nice and friendly, showed me around the store, told me the food and drink options and rules.  They have two nice sofas and several padded chairs plus several large tables to work at if needed.  So I sat down and knitted and knitted.  Around 11:30 I decided that if no one showed up by 12:00 I would leave.  About 11:45 someone came in and sat down. One of the store personel introduced me and explained that I had just moved to the area.  After that, lots of others came to sit and knit.  I met Jane, Judy, Amy, Kathy, Norma and Karen.  I'm hoping I can keep them all straight for the next time I go.  They were all very nice and welcoming.  And like the Friday group at Twisted Yarns, almost all of them have at least one cat, but most of them have multiple cats/pets.  It sounded very familiar.  I left around 1:00, because I did not want to leave Oscar in his crate too long.  I am going to try to go back next Thursday, but I will go later in the day.  I did get quite a bit done on my second Easter sock.  It's almost finished.  More later.
