I am not a shopper. I'm a buyer, but not a shopper. I cannot go into a store and just walk around, cannot go to a mall to "window shop." There are two exceptions: yarn and cowboy boots. Those I can look at for good whiles. Otherwise, I only go into a store if I know what I'm going to get. I get it, maaaybe pick up some other stuff if I happen across it, then get out.
Today I went to Barnes & Noble looking for a jigsaw puzzle. Hannah had been working on one the last time I went to see her, and I've had that bee in my bonnet ever since, I had already been to a couple of other places I thought might have puzzles, but to no avail. Are Hannah and I the only ones who work puzzles anymore? I did muster the patience to go through all the shelves, and this is the one I brought home:
ANYway, I went to the crafts section of Magazines, and. . . What has happened to knitting magazines? Only Interweave and Noro were on the shelf. Now, B&N honestly is the only place in town I know of that stocks knitting magazines on the regular, and I hope this isn't a permanent state. Do most of you still have access to knitting magazines?

I just checked my library which used to carry KnitSimple and Interweave but no more.......
I can get patterns I want individually, and the general blah blah blah that magazines do in addition to patterns isn't really of interest to me. So no I don't do magazines any more twinnie, sorry.
I meant to tell you that there are tons of puzzles in two toy shops up here in Lake Geneva. IF you could what kind of scene would you pick?
