Today was a very special day for me: I started working at Tolt Yarn & Wool! Yes, at my favorite yarn store, can you believe it?! {smile}
It was only (less than) four years ago when Tolt opened up shop. I remember asking Tif what I should try: to crochet or to knit? She suggested knitting since I like to wear what I make, which is still so true. I knew how to do a knit and a purl stitch and that was about it. I didn't know if I was a 'picker' or a 'thrower' (first a thrower, now a picker), had never heard of circular needles and basically had never really knit anything in my life.
Now four years later, I actually had to muster up all my bravery and apply for a job. I haven't worked (for money) since my mid-twenties (yes I know, I have been extremely fortunate that way) and I have never worked in a retail shop before either. The information is overloading my brain right now, but I'm also so incredibly happy to have found a place among the incredible staff there.
Yay, I am now a proud 'Toltia'!!!
