More yarn shopping and yarn porn at home waiting for me!

We went to a yarn store today in Kent called Renaissance Yarns. It was really a nice store. We got there about 5 minutes before it opened and there were about 8 people waiting to get in. I guess they had 2 classes going on this morning. I looked around alot. They had some of the nice Duet sock yarns, but only 2 in fingering weight and I wasn't fond of the colors. They had some DK that I liked but decided was too expensive. They were selling kits for the Mariner's Stitch and Pitch, with Mariners color sock yarns (I guess they were Duets) but you could only get the kit with the ticket and there's no way I'm going to get back up there for the game. I couldn't see paying $40 for a pair of socks and wasting the ticket. I suppose I could have tried to sell it or something.....
Anyway, we tried to find another store that was supposed to be in Burien but there wasn't a yarn shop there when we got there. Oh well.
We stopped at REI on our way home and I got my lovely Haiku bag, and I just want to hold it and stroke it.
