My husband and I took a trip to New York over the weekend, ostensibly for our 10-year wedding anniversary, but really so he could see the band Pavement (+ a decade and a new cap).
But I dragged him along on some crafty adventures as well. We went to Purl Soho, stopped by the Etsy Craft Night, and checked out Maker Faire on Saturday. Photos above are (clockwise from top left): Purl Soho store window, Lion Brand Yarn booth at Maker Faire, a Lego sculpture in the Maker Faire kids’ area, and a yarn bomb at Maker Faire (the name of the group who organized this has escaped me)
I was in exactly the same places as you this weekend – Purl and the Maker Faire! The artist who yarnbombed the rocket is named Robyn Love. I knitted one of the squares!
Our friend was in NYC on a trip to visit friends and at the Pavement concert too!
