>> Elisabeth and Shiv in the yarn shop would be a delight to the staff... <<
I agree. They'd be pulling things out of the storage area that weren't even unpacked for sale yet. :D Oh, and have you found the bargain room?
>> Because gifts ARE one of her love languages. <<
Sooth. I think that, once Shiv starts getting used to the idea that people care about him, he'll get more comfortable with it and this will become a very good fit.
>> Instead of giving in and buying EVERYTHING Shiv can't stop petting, she'd let him winnow it down to what he thinks she'll get for him. <<
Which would be one ball, Jesus. And she'd have to talk him into picking a favorite instead of the cheapest.
>> Meanwhile, she's scared up a box and bought the OTHER yarn he was petting, and tipped the staff to mail the package to her house. That way, she can tuck a couple balls or skeins in with each tee shirt souvenir. <<
Oh, that's a much better idea than dumping it all on him at once. Less chance of overload or choice paralysis that way. \o/
