One of the Wednesday night knitters, went to Lake Chelan, here in Washington state for her summer vacation.  Of course she visited a yarn shop on her travels.  Here is what she had to say:

 

On my recent vacation to the Lake Chelan area in Eastern Washington, I was able to visit a new yarn store called Warehouse Woolery.  It is housed in an old apple packing warehouse north of Chelan.  To find the store, head north on 150 out of Chelan.  At the Y in the road, continue to the right and stay on 150.  The road goes down a long and winding hill.  At the bottom you will see a sign telling you to turn right, to go to Chelan Falls.  Don't turn here!  Continue past the sign and over the railroad tracks.  Just over the tracks turn right and the Woolery is on the right!  It is a lovely shop, full of a variety of yarns such as Lambs Pride, Cascade, Frog Tree, Maggie's Linen to name a few.  The shop owner, Patty McCabe has included a delightful selection of baskets, bags and many patterns.  I was able to attend the yarn and spinning night while I was in town.  The women in the group welcomed me warmly and I truly enjoyed my night of knitting and yummy potluck foods.  Patty is very friendly and has enjoyed the evolution of her yarn shop. I encourage you to visit when your travels take you to the Chelan area of eastern Washington state.

 

If you are taking a trip and would like to take some snaps of a yarn shop on your visit, we'd LOVE IT!  Write a few lines and tell us what you saw.  If you aren't taking a trip this summer, go down to your own LYS and take pictures, email them over to me and I'll cover your yarn shop.

If you are a yarn shop and would like to show us into your store, please, by all means, get me the photos and I will post it.  Tell us what's going on this summer, you know we all want to know. 

I'll be here working on scarves.....
