New Stuff . . .

I had lots of work to do last week adding new stuff to the website. I now have a chance to fill you girls in!


Check out Ozark Handspun… dreamy skeins of crazy mohair and wool


Also, we switched to Kathmandu Recycled Silk due to fact that the yarn is better quality and cheaper!
We still love Himalaya Yarns for their Wool Silk and other yarns, but this new recycled silk is just great.


We made a space for Karaoke Roving! And again, just too cool to pass up.


AND! these new stitch markers, handmade sterling silver by k.bean, are so cool! We’ve got lots more styles coming in.

Aurora 4 is here!

Wow! These balls of extra fine merino are SO soft. Knits up to 5.5 sts per inch on a US 4, which makes me want to knit the Ursule pattern by Kate Gilbert! strawberry goodness.. gotta get more colors on the website today.

TONS of colors coming soon…

They remind me of Jaeger Extrafine Merino but with a slightly tighter twist.

Knits up to the same gauge as Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino.
Lots of great baby/kid colors too!

New Free Patterns

Here are two new scarf patterns available in the Free Patterns section.

Yes, these scarves are the result of my love of Karaoke yarn…
I just can’t get enough of it! ;-)

Missa’s Clutch makes an appearance!

The Nexstitch designed Missa’s Clutch shows up at Knit Pixie!!

It’s such a cute size and just gorgeous…
