It was a pleasure to catch up with friends during a “stopover” in Cork City on our way to Kinsale.
My glowing smile says it all! I am so grateful for a friend like Evin. She has been my virtual and personal tour guide during my 24 hour visit.
We squeezed in a quick visit to see Carol Feller and real life shopping experience at the Stolen Stitches Studio since I’m use to shopping online from Dublin.
I brought home two skeins of Blasta Light to make a couple pairs of Coill, a new mitten pattern by Eimear Earley. Now this doesn’t count as stash because it was a planned purchase, right?
Onto Kinsale, where I discovered the LYS Vivi Trading Co., where Rowan yarns adorn the shelves of this Yarn Shop.
I made some new knitting friends … friendly and knitting expert Claire
and new knitter, Aileen who was making an amazing wrap in moss stitch!
I had the pleasure of joining the local knitting group, check out my IG LIve from the shop!
The best for last photo of the trip is with fellow Dublin Knitter, Deirdre who I literally bumped into at our hotel before heading back to Dublin.
