A Bittersweet Sale

They say that all good things must come to an end. Our friends over at Shibui announced this week that after 17 years, they're closing up shop. We'll miss the energy and beautiful yarns they've brought to our industry and their innovation for creative fabric combinations!

As a farewell gift, they've marked their yarns down 30% off and are letting us extend that sale to you! Enjoy their best selling bases like Haven (now $17.75), Pebble (now $16), and Nest ($14.75) all at great prices (until we run out!)!

In Spanish, Noventa means Ninety, and in yarn language, Malabrigo means amazing, hehe! We got a huge shipment of Malabrigo in this week and now we're practically swimming in scrumptious hand-dyed merino...which is the way we like it! Say hey to Noventa, the newest chunky base from your favorite yarn dyers!

This squishy, superwash, single-ply twist yarn is everything we're reaching for as we continue to brave the cold winter months.

Noventa works great with large hooks and needles and is perfect for textured stitches, hats, cowls, scarves, and anything else you may need to keep warm this winter. (Beware - this yarn is chunky so it works up fast. If you knit or crochet too quickly, it may not last!).

We like to think of Noventa as the bulky middle child between the thick single-ply strands of Mecha and the super chunky and squishy threads of Rasta!

This base makes for a very unique and cozy project as it comes with a slight irregular texture that reminds us of the thick, squishy, felted feel of Rasta! The hand-dyed technique used on this yarn produces a beautifully bright color palette with a variety of hues that make for the most spectacular works of art!

We present to you Noventa in 33 Malabrigo colors you know and love plus 8 NEW ones to make their debut with this base!

The Perfect Hat for Winter!

Looking to get your hands (and needles!) on Noventa ASAP? Shop from the variety of colors offered and knit up The Everyday Hygge Hat! This versatile hat can be worn 6 different ways and is the perfect thing to grab on your way out the door as you brave the cold winter months! Add a pom pom or keep it simple, no matter what this hat is sure to be as cozy as it is unique!

We recommend Jimmy's Smartstix US Size 11 (8mm) 16" Circular Needles for this project!
