This week 4 members of my knitting guild and I went on our first

We were greeted with coffee, donuts and a generous 25% discount at our first stop:
in downtown
VERMILLION, OHIO
on the coast of Lake Erie.

The waitress directed us to a candle shop across the street but we decided we wanted MORE YARN so we skipped the candle shop and proceeded to:
located in this renovated barn in AVON, OHIO (no snow today!)
This was a fun day and we hope to plan more Shop Hops for the future!!

you didn't go to the fiber shop across the street from Birds of a Feather? They have some cool stuff too. Great rovings there. Definitely.
Yes they have an awesome fiber shop across the packing lot.. Lovley woman too! Only met a couple times I live in MA but plan to move to Vermilion in the future sometime. DH grew up there.
