Yarn crawl results

There may have been some items that followed me home yesterday...

Funny, I don't see a project in that yarn. Was there method to the madness? I can't sort out that bag thing, does it use a horse bridle as the handle? The yarn looks so soft and did you get the market basket on the trip too? Double score!

Hopefully it will be lots of projects! :-)

The 2 skeins of the nummy chunky multi colored yarn will be a thick wide scarf for me to brighten my black coat.

There are 2 skeins of sock yarn in the middle that will match sweaters I've made in those same Cascade colorways.

The 2 blue colorways/skeins on the right will be felted slippers for me.

The 2 skeins of Eco Cascade on the bottom in the heather purple will be a vest or sweater for me - maybe the same one I made last year for Maggie?

The Purple soft yarn on the top left will be a cowl or scarf for Maggie in her college colors.

Last but not least are the browns and black colored balls on the top that will be a shawl from the new knitty for me.

It was fun to see the yarn shoppes but I felt a little guilty not spending my money at my LYS since I really want them to stay around for a very long time!

The market bag also was a find at a shop. I have another one very similar to it that I use all the time and I'm afraid it's going to fall apart so this will give me another one so they both last a little longer.
