(Some) New Yarns Are Here!

We have been waiting patiently for our new yarns to arrive and some of them are here!

Nan is already in a quandry over which yarn to get stuck into first and ths is just part of this order!

So what are you going to go for first?

What about ...

Two mixes - 70 and 73 - and two solids - 76 and 80.

There is more to come, but Nan can't type for touching the wool!!!! So ... she will have a lie down with a cool cloth over her forehead then come back later and publish some more goodies.

Noro Cash Iroha Scarf/Shawl

The colour in the last two posts wasn't very good because I had to reduce the file sizes so that I could upload them. So ... here is the picture of me posing like a haddie with my Cash Iroha scarf/shawl. (The pattern is 'scarf' but because I used the Cash Iroha it is more of a shawl.) And .. I only used 2 balls!

DSCF1170

The Cash Iroha normally retails at £7.95/50g but we are selling it at £4.25.

It is 40% silk, 30% lamb's wool, 20% cashmere and 10% nylon with 113m in a 50g ball.
