The nieces gave the shop rave reviews, so when it showed up on Google, I hopped in my car. I wandered around Susan&#8217;s store (Holley is her maiden name) for over an hour, chatting with her. I found the shop to be tidy, reasonably priced and to contain a great selection of knitting gifts like mugs, yarn bowls and Knit Kits. <\/br><\/br><br \/>\nShe also carries a nice selection of Twisted Owl yarn, Knitted Wit yarn, and Done Roving Yarns. I could have used a little more indie dyed sock yarn, but that is nearly always the case for me.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/KnittedWit.jpg\" alt=\"knittedwit\" width=\"305\" height=\"305\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8474\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/IMG_8082.jpg\" alt=\"img_8082\" width=\"305\" height=\"305\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-8433\" \/><br \/>\n<\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/IMG_8081.jpg\" alt=\"img_8081\" width=\"305\" height=\"305\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-8429\" \/><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br>This bright cotton display had visions of dishcloths dancing in my head and I got a tiny bit of Christmas shopping checked off my list.<br \/>\n<\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><\/br><br \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Burger.jpg\" alt=\"burger\" width=\"305\" height=\"400\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-8475\" \/>If you&#8217;re still not sure you want to make the drive to try out a new yarn shop, allow me to tip you over the edge. It&#8217;s two doors down from Liberty Burgers. I ordered a Baby Bella (mushrooms, queso, a fried onion ring, basil garlic aioli), a torch (bacon and queso filled fried jalape\u00f1o served with ranch), and a strawberry shake. The food was so good that I stopped Instagramming and focused on savoring every. single. bite.<br \/>\n<\/br><\/br>Now, this may sound like a lot to consume in one sitting, so if I&#8217;m being one hundred percent honest, I spent an hour on a treadmill afterwards to burn off a few calories so I wouldn&#8217;t feel completely ill.
