Actually, I can tell you one thing we’re doing — right off the bat — is going to Retrosaria Rosa Pomar in Lisbon, a shop I’ve longed to visit for years and am proud to count as a Fringe Supply Co. stockist. I “met” Rosa on Instagram shortly after learning to knit, and wrote about her blog awhile back — a post a few of you cited when I asked for your favorites. The hat pattern of hers that I knitted in 2014 is still one of my all-time favorite knits. I knitted it Portuguese style, as taught to me by Brooke, and as much as I LOVED that, I somehow haven’t done it since — so I’m excited to relearn from Rosa and to finally get to see her beautiful shop and yarns and get to spend some quality time with her. Definitely check out these links and especially her Instagram feed @rosapomar.
*Which has probably already happened by the time this posts!

Loved Retrosaria Rosa when I was in Lisbon. A super shop with a superb variety of yarns.
Yeah! Please take loads of pics, so that we can visit the shop by proxy.
I will live vicariously through your posts. I love that her blog translated!
Right off the bat? I see what you did there…. ;)
