We had a brick and mortar fiber store open!!! Yesterday was the opening. It was very busy. We had to be there for the opening. I have been trying to spin for a while on a spindle and recently started on a wheel. Here in San Francisco we have a , as in 1, spinning vender that is not very nice, makes up her hours as she feels, and in general I don't see why she does what she does if it is such a bother to her. So it is very exciting! It is a small store with a ton of stuff. It is more spinning/felting related than a yarn store. But we do have other yarn store here in SF, but we don't have a fiber store. Above you can see the goody bags that they gave to all the customers, if you made a purchase they gave you a bag. I have 2 in the picture above because by 11 year old daughter spent her own money and purchased some stuff too. My purchases where mainly fiber a few fiber tools. Also there is the goodies from the goody bag:0)
The where a ton of people there so I hope that business goes really well for the owners. The line took forever, the software they are using is good- once it is all set up, but there is bound to be a few qinks on any opening day. They had some demo's going on and had mini-cup cakes to help you pass the time. Here are the pictures of the line and the demo.
Now to show you the store and it's wares. I did not get to capture everything as there where a ton of people and the store is little.
