Oregon Worsted Company

Since Hannah asked, this the lovely vintage yarn used for the bunny of two posts ago. Gifted to me by two lovely ladies browsing this store in Portland, I believe.

Gotta love that $1.49 price tag....

As for you, back tack partner, here is my word association:

Bagel or croissant? Um, donut

A bucket or a thimble? thimble

Warm or cool? warm

Loud or soft? soft (hence my dismay at living near an intersection frequented by vehicles with teeth-rattling stereo systems. the things you don't notice when shopping for a house....)

Patterned or plain? patterned

Rough or smooth? smooth

I have very fond memories of shopping for that yarn. and when i saw it, the woman in the yarn department disdainfully couldn't believe that i would actually buy it, but i knew that it was perfect for Alice Faye. :)

Hey - I say this with hesitancy, as I'm afraid of getting overwhelmed with orders, but if you (or anyone else) is so enamored of that yarn, I can get some more of it, I saw it yesterday. Amazing it hasn't all been bought...
