Loop was a really nice shop, they have a wall of sock wool with lots of pretty, pretty things. I hunted up some needles for caitir_eadoin.

SO F'ING JEALOUS of your Wollmeise!! Is it not amazing???

I keep staring at the listings in eBay and telling myself NO YOU DON'T NEED THAT, but it's sooooo tempting...

So! What are your plans for it? :D

It is very pretty and the colours are very strong. There are a lot of pretty yarns though, and they can't all come home with me.

I suspect that part of the appeal is the difficulty in getting it, and the competitive auctions, but there is a lot of it out there. So unless you are set on a particular colour, it will be there. (And I can pick some up for you, no problems, whenever)

Heheh, I just wanted to get my paws on it...I have no plans yet! (predictable) I am thinking about socks, but I want to practise my socks first or a scarf/ wrap thing, I am not sure how long the colour repeats are yet.

I have to work through some of the other stashed stuff first.

Haha, those are the colors I would leave with too. There's nothing wrong with being comfortable in your favorites! ....right? XD

Heheh, I already have a fair bit in those colours, but no, there is nothing wrong with knowing what you like.
