LIL sale on

I have marked (no pun intended honest) some of the semi precious stone stitch markers down to just a tiny bit over half price. They are very pretty indeed and would make a lovely gift for knitter friends or rellies, and now at a total bargain price too!

Club yarns ahoy!

PPHHEWWW all the yarns are dyed and being packaged up, its just the UK ones, the overseas ones have gone out already as some of them have to travel halfway round the world which is so exciting for me!!


I hope you like this yarn, its a new technique that a lovely friend let me in on that I have used and gives a new affect. Each skien comes out very individual and unique, the same colours are used in the same order but how they dye is all down to the wizardy magic ;) As promised theres a lord of the rings theme, hopefully you will see what I am meaning but take heart non lords lovers its still going to appeal if you arent a fan I hope! The theme will continue through this run of the club.


I have also been busy in the shop, with lots o the favourites and a new batch of semi-solid and solid colours and I will be working on some brand new autumn inspired colours of the next while too so keep checking back.


Can I just say a huge thanks alsoto people who have been supporting the shop, some of you quite regularily, I started out on this very nervously, not even sure if it would be a hit, so to know so many of you are liking the yarns I am very pleased indeed!

VERY CHERRY

Worsted weight now in stock

Granted only a little of it for now as a tester to see if people will like it. I will be offering it in 100g skiens, priced at £10 I am dyeing up some tonight, some Captain jack, bubblegum and offshore, I will be dyeing enough of each to make clapotis and I think this yarn would be perfect for it, so much so I think I will be keeping some for myself to make one in it ;) You would need 4 skiens to make it which makes this yarn £30 cheaper than the yarn used in the pattern but in my humble opinion, its as soft a yarn with the added bonus of perhaps being a little more robust.

If anybody wants some then do shout if you want me to put you some aside

I also got some worsted weight louet too, theres not a lot of it but I have about 2kg of it, and oh my GOODNESS is it lovely stuff, it would be perfect for a clapotis I think, I will be charging £9 per 100g of it so if you would like some dyed up get your custom orders to me soon :)
