Finally Found it!!!!

A LYS! an actual LYS!! I met this lady once outside the doctor's office, she was crocheting something and I intrigued as always sat next to her and started to ask her questions about her crocheting, we ended up her teaching me how to crochet and in the process telling me where she buys her yarn, I told her of my disappointment due to the lack of LYSs where I could buy the real stuff and not acrylic yarn. Well to my surprise such a place exists somewhere in the bad parts of town, I wrote down the name and asked for specific directions, she gave 'em to me and I vowed to one day on my own little self wander around those parts of town and see if I could find it. Anywho time passed by and I had forgotten about that place until this semester when choosing which hospital to go to for the Internal Medicine Internship, I chose one that is located in that part of town where the alleged LYS is supposed to be, and so again I vowed to one day after noon when i've left the hospital I could wander around. Well last night, my dad decided he wanted to eat out and so invited me and my mom to go to our version of "China Town" and as we are driving around "China Town"(which is nothing like China Town in the US or anywhere else) there it was!!! on the same street "China Town" is located, in a corner! With a painting of a ball of yarn as a logo and the name of the LYS Siragusa. It was obviously closed because of the hour, but I'm definitely going there sometime this week! Finally found the LYS! Praise God!
Well thats all for now...

thats interesting, for the last time I was in the RD I tried to find yarn shops. But no chance, lol! I will try to find it next time I go, though I spent most of the time in La Romana!

Hey there Danni!
It turned out to be a sham, its just another crafts store, no yarn here *sniffles*
But when you do come back, especially to the capital, let me know we might get together and knit! :D

Hi!!
To sad thay you did not find the type of yarn shop you expected ..!
Oh yes I will let you know, when I am going back, I actually plan to travel by the End of September or by the end of October. It would be my pleasure to meet you and knit for a while
