New Yarns

Hi folks.

If you think working in a wool shop is all sitting knitting all day, think again. You spend more time drooling over new yarns and wondering what to knit with them!!!!

Here are a couple just in ...



New from King Cole. A beautiful Baby Alpaca.

It has 100m in a 50g ball. The recommended needle size is 4mm with a tension of 22 stitches and 28 rows to 10cm.

It is 100% baby alpaca and costs £4.99 a ball.

Next is Duo Plus from Adriafil.



It has 120m in a 50g ball. The recommended needle size is 4.5mm with a tension of 19 stitches and 26 rows to 10cm.

It is a mixture of 52% wool and 48% cotton and is handwash. It costs £3.75 a ball.

In as well are new colours of Adriafil Knit-Col. This yarn is proving really popular and no wonder. Have you tried it yet?

(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 ...



It has 133m of 100% extra fine camel hair in a 25g ball. The recommended needle size is 2.5mm - 3mm.

Or what about Sierra Andina?



This has 133m of 100% extra fine alpaca in a 50g ball. The recommended needle size is 3mm - 3.5mm.

All of these



are available, and we chose the six finest to break you in gently. Three tweedy shades - 092, 093 and 095 - and three solid shades - 22, 30 and 46.

Now, if that isn't enough to get you excited, what about Lana Inca?



It has 100m of a 50% alpaca/50% wool mix in a 50g ball. the recommended needle size is 4.5mm - 5mm.

All of these



are available and we have chosen four super colourways by way of an introduction to the range.
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.
