Frankfurt and area wool shopping

So I went to Germany to a wedding and of course I came home with wool. I did try to get German brands and as usual I picked up sock wool.

I went to Germany and visited two wool shops and was quite restrained (even my husband remarked about my restraint!)

First was in Frankfurt

Woll-Boutique Elflein, resulted in this loot (with two balls of some)

030

Wiesbaden resulted in this:
022
From Wolle Rodel I bought a few balls of cotton rich sock wool there.

Most is sock wool, whether or not all will become socks in the future is another question. Some was just rather cool wool that wanted to come home with me for me to play!

Basket o'cotton

Well actually I lie, it's a basket of cotton and cotton blends, all DK. I think there will be some modular tops made with this for the summer.

Kool Kotton Pile

Mount Kool Kotton

Most of the colours I have of the Kool Kotton Range, a few of them are enticing me to buy more to knit a full garment out of this Cotton and Acrylic blend.
