Not too much luck at the yarn shop last night. It's an amazing store, and I'll definitely be going back, but I didn't find what I was looking for. So I ordered it. Wanna see?
I believe it's called Happy Valley. Something like that. It's Lorna's Laces Shepherd Worsted. What I felt in the store was so unbelieveably soft and wonderful (and 100% wool) that I couldn't resist. Not cheap stuff, but I would love this to be an heirloom piece. I also ordered some for myself in the Black Purl colorway (dark purples and grays) for the clapotis. Spent lots of money, but I'm ok with it. I'm ok spending money when I know it's for quality. If the yarn had sucked, i wouldn't have done it. I will post pictures of the finished blanket when I'm done.
So a little stress still, but not too bad. I'm going to work on socks and other stuff until the yarn comes in and then work on the blanket. My roommate and I are also putting up our Christmas tree this weekend and seeing Happy Feet. Lots to do, little bit of time left.
