My mom is knitting!!
She taught me to crochet about 6 years ago, has knitted before, but just picked it up again. Yay yay yay, I get to talk fiber with my mom! Here is her Spunky Eclectic scarf, and more projects are on her new blog –> ballostring

And another special knit, I always say that Karabella Lace Mohair is a perfect substitute for Rowan Kidsilk Haze, and Agnes at Knitting in the Valley totally agrees! See her “River” shawl and her comments about Lace Mohair… awesome!

I really wish I posted these yarns in the blog earlier, but they sold out before I had a chance!
They are super cool sock yarns by Claudia Hand Painted
I’ve got 3 more colors that I need to take photos of, but that’s it for about 4 months until we get our next shipment… eek!

click here for more sold out colors
We do have Claudia’s hand painted mohair boucle in stock, which is so dreamy, I’ll add them to the website this weekend.

We LOVE to see photos of your finished knits….
Tiffany made the “Irish Hiking Scarf” and “Voo Doo Wristwarmers”!
I am totally in love with both… Bartlett “Lovat” and Vesper “Bleu”

Jeannette knit this beautiful “One Skein Wonder” with Karabella Aurora 8!

Katy knit the beautiful (and complicated looking) Mariposa!
She said it was easier to knit than expected, and her Mom loves it.

Ria made some cool crochet wrist warmers with a new color of Karaoke.

Wowee, when these skeins came in from MidnightSky Fibers I was drooling. They are on the small side, 50 yards for most skeins, but they are really cool.

totally wild totally SOFT
Brooklyn Handspun will be on the website on Friday! These huge handspun skeins are incredible.
Update Nov 4th. We already sold half our stock of these yarns!

The new Karaoke stripes are here! These colors are more intense and make stripes that are closer together.

click here for color 297 in crochet!
Also, there is a new kids hat pattern for color 300. click here
Color 300 has one stripe of dark green in it, I was so mesmerized as I was knitting this hat watching the colors change. These new colors are also a bit more thick/thin than the others, creating nice depth to the knitted fabric.
