Way back in November when Lorena came to visit, she did a yarn crawl through Chicago. We really wanted to join her at Loopy Yarns but we had to work and couldn’t make it. After that, I sort of forgot about Loopy.
And there it was, near Dearborn Station, while we were at Printers Row Litfest. TW headed in while I took a photo and Loopt that we were there. A spinning wheel was sitting out front. A crowd of people were inside. A couple of chairs were conveniently placed where I could plop myself down in one and enjoy the people watching and look at the yarn from afar. I was tired by that point.
The people watching was excellent. The nice young guy who works there talking to the woman about sock yarn was fabulous. The old women in sweater sets. The young hipster couples. Fantastic. I love that store and I didn’t even make my way downstairs where there was a huge pile of colorful fiber just laying there.
We must go back when I’m not so darn tired so I can fondle the fiber.
