Happy New Year!

Either you successfully finished all of your holiday knitting or you can consider yourself "ahead of the game" for next year. I must confess that I will be giving my husband his felted clogs next Christmas. We begin this year with some fabulous new yarns!

Introducing...

Silky Wool: A lovely yarn from Swedish designer Elsebeth Lavold. It is a universal DK weight yarn made up of 65% wool and 35% silk. The colors are beautiful offering a heathered look with a silky sheen.

Louisa Harding: For those of you who like a little more glitz in your garments, we now carry three different Louisa Harding ribbon yarns: Glisten, Thalia, and Kimono Ribbon. All three shimmer but each has something unique to offer.

Alpaca with a Twist:
Baby Twist: A sumptuous 100% baby alpaca yarn that knits up in a DK weight. This yarn is incredibly soft and would be perfect for baby knits, sweaters and accessories. It comes in a generous skein of 549 yards.

Fino: For those who enjoy lace knitting, look no further. This lace weight yarn is a wonderful blend of 70% alpaca and 30% silk. It would make a gorgeous shawl!
