LYS - Stars Hollow Yarn

I have been following Stars Hollow Yarn on Instagram for awhile.  I wasn't able to make it to their soft opening, but I was able to go the following Saturday, December 8th.  She is opening on Saturdays for several hours until she does a grand opening after the New Year....

I texted my husband: This is my kind of yarn shop! This could be dangerous!

The store is beautiful!  The building is gorgeous!  The owner and her mom were friendly, talkative and so excited that we were there....they made me a cup of tea!!!

I ran into Kris and her Mom...
So many lovelies!  Now that I'm living mostly at the inlaws....it is only about 30 minutes away...I will let the pictures do the talking...


She has lots of framed posters that you can also buy (unframed)


I really wanted this bag, but didn't get it...I may go back this Saturday to pick it up...
Up the stairs was a loft full of goodies....



And a neighbor's cat that likes to hang out in the store...
I picked up a couple of enamel pins...
My acquisitions!  I started the hat when I got home.  It's from a skein of Canon Hand Dyed exclusive Gilmore Girls themed yarn, called "You want to devil egg Jess' car?  I only used about half the skein...Although I bought a pom there, I ended up ordering one online from PDXpom, as I decided it needed a yellow pom....

The other skein of yarn is Round Mountain Fibers, dyed in Vermont, yarn is grown and spun in the US...It's called Jack in the Pulpit...I know it's crap picture...sorry...


She carries many indie makers: Leading Men Fiber Arts, Canon Hand Dyed, Wee Ones with shop exclusive Gilmore Girls inspired stitch markers: Paul Anka, a hamburger, a coffee and a snowman.

What a wonderful shop!  I will definitely be visiting again!!!

ETA: The hate with the yellow pom
and I did not go back this week to get the bag...:(

Now there is a shop where I would go seriously crazy. I want ALL the things, including the neighbor’s cat.

Looks like a nice yarn store. My local one is jammed with yarn, imagine over time this shop will have more.......which makes it even more dangerous, lol.

Now that looks like a shop I could spend some quality time in. So sweet that the neighbor cat gets to visit. :)
