Learning experiences

A friend and I swung by Nease's Needlework's going-on-the-internet sale today. It's sad to see it go, but I know the owner will enjoy getting to concentrate on needlework through the new web incarnation of Nease's, and as for the brick-and-mortar, an employee named Carrie told us to check back in a couple weeks...

The yarn had been pretty well ravaged by the time we got there, but I did pick up three pairs of Clover bamboo circs. I tried one out tonight on a swatch for a new project, and I learned a valuable lesson. I'm just not sure if the lesson was "I prefer metal needles in size 5 and up" or "Clovers suck."
