Keep an eye out for the new lines coming in. We are very excited to add these lovely yarns to our inventory. The colors of the Mission Falls are just gorgoeous and not like any other. The 1824 Wool and 1824 Cotton are interchangeable as far a gauge. 18 stitches in 4 inches and 24 rows. Very cool! The pattern support for these yarns is wonderful, lots of childrens patterns that are unique and colorful. The wool is a very soft superwash merino! Yippee! Superwash.
Ellen Coopers yarn is LOCAL and this yarn can sell itself. Her colorways are interesting and the fiber options are numerous. I had to hold back on buying, Icould have taken all the colors. I have chosen the superwash in a worsted weight. There are many others to chose from and I am open to getting more when we see how this goes.
This week we recieved some items from Knit one, Crochet too. Some lovely hand dyed Ambrosia, a delicious blend of luxury fibers for those very special gloves. "Linus" is a new yarn for them and the pattern I chose is adoreable. Check out knitonecrochettoo.com for the fish pattern," Gone fishing", I have all the colors for this sweater and the yarn is a merino, acrylic and alpaca blend.
