NEW YARNS COMING IN...

We have several really beautiful new yarns in... just in time for summer knitting!

There is a super soft worsted weight cotton from Blue Sky Alpacas. Just like the Blue Sky Organic Cotton, so if you have worked with that and liked it, you'll definitely want to check out Blue Sky Cotton in a rainbow of beautiful colors.

If you're looking for something in a sport weight, be sure to check out Blue Sky 100% Alpaca. Lots of great vibrant colors at a really great price... only $7.75 per hank.

And we have just received several great new yarns from Rowan. There's the cotton rope in eight fun summer colors... plus the cotton rope collection pattern book, if you need some extra inspiration.
Rowan has also come out with a new machine washable line of Cashmere Blends - Cashsoft and Cashcotton. We love these yarns for baby items and as a substitute for the Debbie Bliss Cashmerino line.
