![]() ![]() ![]() I can't wait for her to fall asleep on my knitting.
We continue to receive LOTS of new stock. The UPS guy stopped in one day last week week and peeked his head in to Angel and said he just wanted to say "Hi" because it was the only day in the last several weeks that he hasn't had to pull out his dolly to load all the boxes into the shop. TOO CUTE.
What's On Our Needles?
On Angel's needles, "Inspired Stole" knit in Frabjous Mad Hatter Sport - I think she would like to sleep with this yarn..or maybe does...She is using tones of grey..oh so lovely
BUT she is dreaming of Seiklus Shawlette using one of the fingering weight hand dyes.

What's New
Lova Fan is on the shelves - Love this new self-striping yarn in team colors: - knit or crochet great caps in the colors of your very personal favorite football team! Due to printed stripes effect, the stripes are created automatically while knitting – without complicated color changes.
Get the school & sports team spirit: Go Gophers, Vikings, Maple Grove, Osseo, Champlin, Wayzata - so fun.
Babe Chunky Softcotton in solids and multi-colors can be combined to make a great Babe Softcotton Chunky Chevron Blanket that knits up quick on size 10 needles. Choose either the 4 or 6 skein version. Pattern designed by local designer Paul Neary. And he is here teaching this too!
2 NEW GREAT yarns from Trendsetter have arrived. La Furla Metal & Duchess LaFurla Metal is FUR with GLITZ - we all need a little sparkle!
Duchess is a Cashmere Merino Blend that knits at 4.5 sts to an inch and is SCRUMPTIOUS - a squooshy-soft blend of wool & cashmere in a lovely range of heathered solids. Duchess is a chainette constructed that lends itself well to a multitude of projects, from sweaters to cozy cowls to blankets.
Mariette from Schachenmayr Select is great for hats, cowls, scarves, and more. A little bead in the yarn add sparkle to your knits.
Fourteen elegant designs by Sarah Hatton were created with a modern feminine feel which are perfectly suited to this soft classic yarn. The collection features neat cardigans and sweaters along side colourwork, gloves, cables and knitting on the round.
Big Wool Colour is on the shelves as well. I love the quick to knit accessories!
Rowan has added a "fur" yarn this year and it is great when knit alone or as an accent.
