We're heading to TNNA (The National Needle Arts Association) in Las Vegas this weekend, and one of the companies we can't wait to meet is Delicious Yarns! The gals behind this brand create brilliant kettle-dyed colorways with scrumptious bites of color, and they're also the geniuses who bring you Fresh Baked Yarn every season. It just so happens we discovered this brand at last year's summer event, and can't wait to see what new treats they have in store.
Join us this Friday and Saturday as we explore TNNA and report back to you on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Meet the brands that bring you your favorite products, and check out the new ones we pick up along the way!
In the meantime, get to know some of our favorites from Delicious Yarns:

Vegas Nights Shawl Kit
We're also really excited about a kit collaboration between 6 awesome companies! OwlCat Designs, Lorna's Laces, Anzula, Oink Pigments, and Sweetgeorgia have joined forces to create a TNNA Mini Yarn Crawl with a shawl project fit for the Vegas Strip.
Designed by OwlCat Designs, the Vegas Nights Shawl features five specially dyed mini-skeins joined together in one project that ties the Vegas theme with other things the city has to offer: bright lights, deep desert night skies, and many incredible shows!

A Tribute To The Upcoming Lunar Trifecta!
Have you heard?! Earth's natural satellite is about to do an extremely cool (and extremely rare!) thing on January 31st. Not only will we get to see a lunar eclipse (total if you're on the West Coast), but it will be the first blue moon lunar eclipse to occur since 1866 - that's 150 years in the making! AND if that's not enough to get you out of bed at four in the morning, it will be a supermoon too!
In anticipation of this rare lunar spectacle, we're paying tribute with some moon-inspired yarnspiration! Turns out we fiber enthusiasts love the moon so much we've named a LOT of colorways after it. Head over to the blog to see the full lineup and learn more about this rare event!

In collaboration with Knitter's Pride, we recently created custom Knit Blockers in Jimmy Beans' colors! Just like the original Knit Blockers - but now rainbowtastic! - these handy blocking tools are a necessity when it comes to speeding up the blocking process.
Designed by knitters, this ingenious product helps maintain even tension across the width of the blocking pins, perfect for blocking straight edges on sweaters, scarves and shawls!
Check out our instructional video below to learn more!
