Mom: I'm going to Hong Kong with your brother this weekend, and the shops your grandmother used to buy all her yarn from are within walking distance of our hotel. Do you want me to buy some for you?
Me: !!!!!!
    !!!!!!!!!
    !!!!!!!!!!!

(I made a list which boils down to: "yarn. pretty yarn. soft yarn. pretty and soft yarn. lots of it")

Oh, you fortunate creature! Would it be possible at some point to get the names of some of these stores for my future reference? (Just imagine me being the only person in my set going to HK for *yarn*, hohoho)

I can't wait to see the entry when you finally get to see these yarn stores for yourself. They may never get you out of them - unless it's to entice you to visit the Apple store or something.

Happy for you!

Erk, I meant to reply sooner. The place my mom knew of was the Paris Cotton Singlets, over at the causeway area:

(I hope that this comment reaches you before HK! I don't quite recall when that was)

Comment has definitely reached me before HK - am not going anywhere to the north till the late spring, I guess! :)
