We can shop again!

Picture
But bookstores are not the only things opening up again, slowly but surely.  We can go back to the yarn store!  Most stores are limiting the number of people in at a time, the time you can spend in the store, and how much fondling you can do.  But we can once again go in to judge colors in person, be inspired by a whole wall of perfectly twisted skeins, and interact (on a limited basis) with other people who share our passion for yarn.  

Here is a list of places that are open so far in our area and a little farther out if you are looking for a bit of a drive:

Guys, I have to tell you what I did yesterday.  I went into a bookstore.  I walked around, looking at cover art, smelling the distinct smell of paper and ink.  It made me feel a little more human, a little more like me.

The experience wasn't the way it used to be.  I was wearing a mask, I didn't flip through books or read the back covers.  I avoided touching shelves, displays, the handrails on the escalators.  And I could not sit and read.  But I was there.
