Knot another hatAs most of you know, I am not operating America’s Knitting all my myself.  If you read our ‘About Us’ page, you will see and learn about all the different contributors.  Libbie Hartley is one of those contributors.  Libbie’s husband Darin helps out in his own way too, and Darin had a birthday.Knot another hat1  Also, as you may know, we all live in the state of Washington.  Darin got a weekend trip to Hood River for his birthday.  Hood River is in Oregon, and is a very popular spot for us western Washingtonians.  Darin is a brewer of craft beer (in his spare time), and Libbie is a lover of wine.  There are lots of breweries and wineries there in Hood River – there is also a yarn shop.

Knot Another Hat is located in Hood River, and Libbie visits every time she’s in town.  She was kind enough to snap a few photos for us on this trip, so we could also go along for the ride!  Knot Another Hat is located right in town, but it’s upstairs, so they don’t really have a store front of sorts, but they do have a sign, sandwich board, an elevator, and a view of the river.Knot another hat4
