News Flash! Great new yarn!!
Hey kids! Joan here with a quick news flash announcing our fantastic new hand-dyed, self striping sock yarn from Canada!! (Just try to imagine how hard it is to hand-dye these self-patterning yarns!)
This fantastic yarn, called Felix, is exclusive to our area, coming from a company called Biscotte & Cie in Quebec, and is at an introductory price of $24.99 for 100 grams/384 yds.
We have been having so much fun working up some early samples of these fun, cheerful yarns, made with the finest superwash merino (plus 20% nylon for strength). Once I made the Clownfish socks,
I had to deck out little Snickers with a sweater from the leftovers!
Plus I made an easy baby hat, just to see what it's like in a swirly pattern:
And I'm partway done with the interesting strip-knit sock published in Knitty, here:
Knitty: carousel sock
(Now that I have the matching semi-solid color, I can finish the sock!)
Also, I'm just binding off the red white & blue striped sock -- in time for July 4th!
And we'll be starting a Stephen West scarf with the semi-solids as well!
So drop everything (except your knitting needles) and come in to see our new stuff! Speaking of which, read on for Koryn's latest faboo blog about this week's other new items!
