Brushed Suri

This weekend was the one year anniversary of my local yarn store, Park Avenue Yarns.  This also happens to coincide with my one year anniversary of living in TX, so it's something that I'll probably always remember.  I am soo thankful that this store opened close to where I live!  They had a weekend long sale with specific yarn specials each day.  I stopped by on Saturday to have some goodies and to part take in the sale.  I also wanted to pick up the book Coastal Knits since I knew they had that as well.  On Saturday they happened to have all Blue Sky Alpacas yarn on the sale for 26% off.  I couldn't resist picking up some Brush Suri in a white-cream color.  I've been wanting to knit a Brushed Suri Loop Scarf by Merri Fomm ever since I saw my mom casting on for one when I visited with her in Forth Worth.  The yarn is very soft and yummy, but not so easy to cast-on with.  I ended up casting on some last night and finishing up today and I haven't been able to put the project down.  I'm going to force myself to put it down and work on my Einstein coat.  At least that is what I keep telling myself I'm going to do.
