My favorite yarn store in Liverpool, England


When my husband and I visited family in England, we took the train into Liverpool one of the days.
Some sightseeing and shopping ( at the LFC) was done in time to also take the chance to visit my favorite wool shop on Stafford Street, Abakhan.

The bombed out church and 

Christmas truce football statue


And Liverpool cathedral

More sightseeing



Liverpool Library 


And shopping
I love that Slogan ⚽️



You have two floors of wool, notions, fabric, anything you can possibly think of!  They also give classes.  I am thinking to check them out during one of my next visits.



Thousands of different buttons



I choose some gifts



And some yarn 

And this is what I knitted from the yarn.  This is an incredible pattern for fingerless mitts written by Sylil Ra .  It is a free pattern on ravelry, called U-Turn mitts.  It is done all in one piece, with twists and turns.  I just finished one mitt today 😍
