This week, since I have nothing complete, I thought that I would review my favorite California yarn shop since I was a kid, Filati Fine Yarns. Ever since I knew about yarn shops, my mother has taken me there. I would walk up and down the aisles, marveling at the colors, softly petting the textures. Yes, folks, I pet yarn. I am a yarn pervert. The people are helpful, and they carry madelinetosh, road to china light, debbie bliss cashmerino, and all the greats. I could just move in and have my mail forwarded there. I love it.
Here is some more great info about them:
