We visited Colorful Yarns in Centennial, Colorado when we visited our daughter last month and I bought some souvenir yarn all in fingering weight.
Two hand-dyed in the Denver area and one from Texas.
Knerd String is located in Castle Rock, Colorado. I loved the greens and purples in the Mr. Greensleeves colorway. As this is 100% wool, it will become a shawl of some sort.
Andromeda‘s Grumpy Gus is a special colorway created just for the Colorful Yarns shop. This hank of blues and greens will become socks or a shawl in a yet-to-be-determined pattern.
I had to have the grey and touch of purple Chasing Rabbits Fern yarn in Tarnish hand-dyed in Amarillo, Texas.
I’m a sucker for greys and other neutral colors though I also like color…it just depends on my mood and the project on which I’m working.
Do you buy souvenir yarn, fabric or other things on your travels?

Very nice choices! I live buying souvenir yarn, it lets me relive the vacation when I knit it and when I wear the garment.

I always buy yarn when I travel. I mean, you have to visit the LYS, and it would almost be rude not to get a skein or two or five… best thing is, you will always remember that that project was made with yarn from that trip or vacation
