Beautiful Colinette Ribbon!

This is the lovliest, most elegant, delightful ribbon i've seen in a long time. It comes to us from Colinette, a wool house in Wales. You will be seeing a lot more of this kind of quality! I've already started a little cropped cardi for demo in the shop. It has a squishy soft hand, and the rayon allows for a lovely drape. The composition is cotton, rayon and nylon. This means that it won't be overwhelmingly hot when layered.

Please drop in and see - it's a beauty!

Remember last week i was knitting the wonderful Shrug, made from Baby Alpaca? It's done and up for show! It only takes 4 skeins and looks wonderful on everyone!

The 2 x 2 ribbing around the waist hugs your curves, or makes curves where there weren't any! It looks especially pretty with one of Bijoux's Sparklies pinning it together. I have five colours - the coral is my fav - with five more new fall colors arriving in September. It really does give you maximum impact for minimum effort. Consider making several for Christmas gifts.

Gotta go now and watch the drywall compound dry across the hall!
