Pasa Yarns

I had fun today. I went on a treasure hunt… a shopping expedition. First I went to Pasa Yarns in Uxbridge (Elmdale Rd). I remember going to a mill store at the same location in the 70’s, when I was weaving and doing more knitting, but this is a new place.
The store is a jumble of fibers, lots of dark corners. I’d wanted a flashlight. I was looking for wool suitable for doll hair and I did find some. You have to buy the entire cone of whatever yarn you want, so I now have more then a lifetime supply of light blond, dk. brown, and a reddish brown wool for hair. It was so cheap though… I think $3.00 a pound, that I can hardly complain about having too much!
I also came home with other wonderful stuff that I don’t need, but it was soooo beautiful! Wonderful mohair (at $6.50 a pound it is the most expensive fiber they sell) and mohair blends, thick and thin boucle, and some cotton that may or may not work for doll hair. I also got a pound of black roving ($5.50) that I will try for stuffing small black dolls and also for hair. It has a beautiful luster.
