I’m back from my trip to New York and Chicago. I’ve bought more than 20 things in total! But here, I will just share the tools I’ve bought for my work. All bought from a yarn shop called “purl” in Soho, New York.
Actually, I must tell you about my incident in Chicago before that. I and my parents went on a 2 hour boat tour to see the amazing architecture and the huge lake. It was great but really sunny. Of course, I was wearing a hat, covered in sunblock and my new linen scarf but I felt a bit dizzy in about an hour so I decided to go downstairs, inside the boat to stay away from sunlight. When I stood up, I fainted and that was it. The girl who hates the sun had a sunstroke. I was carried downstairs by my dad and a crew member and lay down for the rest of the tour. I managed to walk out of the boat but when I climbed the stairs(why so many stairs, now?) to get to the street, I went off again and was taken back to the hotel by taxi. Now, I’m fine but my foot which I had to drag for a few days is still recovering from the bruise/scratch I got then! I must get used to sunlight a bit more or never stay in sunlight for too long, which shall I choose?
another pair of gingher scissors for myself
5 inch knife edge craft scissors.
I thought this one has a cool design.
“The self-storing scissor” from Bryson
simple and smart, made in Germany sounds always promising
rolled tape measure from hoechst mass
vintage model thread cards from Sajou
I originally went to “purl” to buy this one!
Sajou does many vintage inspired things, so nice.
