I went on a treasure hunt&#8230; 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&#8217;s, when I was weaving and doing more knitting, but this is a new place.<br \/>\nThe store is a jumble of fibers, lots of dark corners.  I&#8217;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&#8230; I think $3.00 a pound, that I can hardly complain about having too much!<br \/>\nI also came home with other wonderful stuff that I don&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"yarn.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/archives\/yarn.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had fun today.
