Mona's Knitting Room

My friend Kay and I went on a road trip this weekend to Meredith and Center Harbor, New Hampshire. "Where is Meredith/Center Harbor?", you ask. These towns are situated on the northwest shore of Lake Winnipesaukee in the center of the state, which is about two hours north of Boston. "What is so special that you would drive 2 hours to visit?", you further ask. What else? Shopping! There is a lovely Christmas shop in Meredith and Patternworks is in Center Harbor. The views of the lake are absolutely spectacular and alone make the trip worthwhile. We had a great time talking and shopping, followed by a yummy fresh seafood dinner.


Although I tried to resist the call of the yarn, I did buy yarn for a sideways knit vest that was sampled in the shop. The yarn is Blue Heron Yarns Silk & Rayon Twist (80% mulberry silk/20%rayon) in the colorways Rainforest and Mossy Place and the pattern is free with purchase of the yarn.
