A friend gave me a gift certificate for Yarn Market over the holidays as a sort of mixed holiday/birthday season giftie, and I wasn’t sure what I wanted to get with it. Yarn? Bag? Basket? What? I’d been fondling these Lantern Moon needle cases for a few years at my LYS. Budgetary constraints always insured [...]
