Setting Things Straight
This could quite possibly be a "knitpick" but it really irritates me when there is a big fat wrong printed in a publication be it a newspaper or magazine whatever.
In the newest issue of Vogue Knitting Holiday 2004 there is a lovely article about WoolWinders A Knitting Salon (see page 16) in Rockville, Maryland. Now don't get me wrong I like this shop really. I don't have anything against them. BUT in the article it says and I quote:
"Located in a suburb of Washington DC (on the Red Line of the DC Metro), WoolWinders buzzes with activity, especially during twice weekly knitting-group meetings, during which wine and cheese are served, and on Sundays, when it's the only yarn store open in all of Maryland."
Now that is just flat wrong. So to set the record straight I'm offering here to you today a list of those shops in Maryland that are in fact also open on Sunday.
