Bangorissa oli paljon kortti- ja kirjakauppoja. Yksi lankakauppakin löytyi (Sew wise), mutta langat olivat lähinnä akryylia. Ostin kuitenkin pari kerää Sirdarin Firefly -tikapuulankaa. Tuossa kaupassa oli jonkin verran ristipistopakkauksia. Ostin muutaman Bisquit the cat -pakkauksen. Tein yhden valmiiksikin matkan aikana. Siellä oli tosi hienoja isoja pakkauksia, mutta ne olivat vähän turhan kalliita. Ristipistolehtiä ostin aika monta. Suurimman osan niistä saa Suomestakin, mutta olivathan ne vähän edullisempia siellä. Knitting & stitching -lehti on tosi kiva ja se oli pakko ostaa jo senkin takia, että nimi on melkein sama kuin blogillani. Yhden jouluaiheisen käsityölehden ostin vielä Oslon lentokentältä (oli lentokoneen vaihto Oslossa)
The journey was nice, but both Maiju and I were a little sick. Fortunately not all the time. The weather was good on Thursday and on Sunday but on other days it was raining. The landscapes were lovely, especially from Menai Bridge and the pier of Bangor. I didn't have time to visit other towns - we were just in Bangor. There are some photos in my Website. Click the link "Bangor lokakuu 2006". The photos are thumbnails, so if you want click them bigger.
There were many card- and bookshops in Bangor and I found a yarnshop too (Sew wise on High Street). There were almost just acrylic yarns, but I bought two balls Sirdar Firefly -yarns. And there was some very nice but expensive cross stitch kits. I bought some Biscuit the cat -kits (they were not expensive) and I stitched one of them during the journey. Then I bought quite many cross stitch magazines. Knitting and stitching was a very nice magazine and the name of it is almost identical with my blog :) And from Oslo's airport I bought one christmas magazine (we had to change plain there).
