New Ultra Alpaca colors just in. Also Berroco has introduced the same yarn in a Bulky weight, called Cuzco and a fine weight called Ultra Alpaca fine. Both have the hand of the original but with more versatility you can make anything, sock, shawls, sweaters and chunky items as well. Don't forget this wonderful yarn comes in a 'light' dk weight too. In the same shippment was the Inca Gold that I used to make the Eastlake in the Norah Gaughan vol3. Loved working with the Inca Gold, merino and silk. I have the newest Berroco books in stock to accompany these yarns and samples of sweaters to touch.
Some new colors in the Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Baby arrived and some new books. Seems we can't keep the baby books in stock. The patterns are so cute. I have some Sirdar books that have some 'to die for ' kids patterns that you can use the cashmerino to substitute. These are really nice traditional arans, swing style updated sweaters and great boys pattterns that are sometimes hard to find. Watch for the new superwash Merino from Jil Eaton. I can't wait til that comes in. The colors are fabulous and I got them all. Soft as can be and really cute pattern support.

Cricket from Reynolds is a 52% rayon/48% wool, 5 sts/inch on a 5. (dk). This has a lovely subtle sheen and the rayon adds a nice touch and drape.
Marble now is available in baby colors in dk weight as well. Nice colors in all varieties, yardage is great and the price even better, wash and dry acrylic.
Kertzer Northern worsted acrylic machine wash/dry. 16 colors.
Kertzer Northern chunky acrylic, machine wash/dry, 8 colors.

New needle cases from Lantern Moon. Gorgeous silks.
Mini Mochi sock yarn from Crystal Palace is a very fun brighter self striping yarn with just a little more 'wooly-ness' for those that love winter socks. Fingering weight 195 yds and 12 colors to choose from. Makes a great hat or baby surprise sweater as well.
MMMMMM Malabrigo...chunky, worsted and sock! Yummy colors all here for the touching. Have to touch this stuff. This is a very popular yarn and hard to get from Uraquay. It's like wearing your favorite blanket. This makes great snowborder, earflap style hats. Also Magnum from Cascade is available for a one skein hat or scarf in a super light bulky yarn.
To add to the chunky or bulky section, is Lei, a very nice merino. Come check out the super chunky, fast knit, cabled scarf/wrap. This is very soft and warm not to mention the latest in the fashion magazines.
