Get ready - here it comes!

Okay, i'm getting excited! New stuff is starting to arrive weekly and we should have all our new winter stock by end of August! At which point i'll have to schlepp all the summer cottons up to the attic and i'm NOT looking forward to that - speaking of which, all the summer cottons and cotton blends are on sale - 40%. Get in here guys and take advantage of a really good sale! I REALLY don't want to schlepp!

What's new? Socks, Socks, Socks! 8 new colours of Arequipa sock yarn, which is a blend of Alpaca, superwash wool and nylon.

AND a new beauty, Cadenza - Superwash Merino wool and Tussah Silk! This is also a sock yarn and with a prominent twist x 6 wonderful shades.



Classes continue to make the shop hummmmmmmm - a new class schedule is being made up - check our website for updates. One fun class will be the HatMittScarf Class - Almost full at this point and very reasonable. One full ball of Marble Chunky will net you a hat, pair of mitts and a scarf! We will be making this up as a kit as well for your Christmas shopping! (i know it's early, but you gotta get going on those Christmas pressies!) We currently have 3 colours (had 5 but they flew off the shelves!) and 8 more colours are coming.

Hey, did you know that knitting is the new Yoga? It's calming, slows your heart down, and can be described as a moving meditation. Who knew?
