Just landed - our bulky weight yarns from our friends at Rosários of Portugal. It may still be August, but our winter stitching yarns are already arriving. Now you can jump on your fall and winter wardrobe making! I am so excited to have some new string in the shop for you to experiment with this season.

This DK weight, 3-ply woolen spun is a blend of American Cormo and wool. It comes in 12 incredible shades of black. Yes, TWELVE SHADES OF BLACK, marled with just a touch of color – purple, blue, green, pink and more!

This #MustMakeMonday, we couldn’t help but pair up a pattern from @olgaputanodesigns Field Notes, by Laine Publishing, with our incredible recent arrival from Ireland. The Candyland sweater, per the designer, is an ode to the love of cable knitting. The yarnistas can’t help but pair this garment with the gorgeous heathered Romney lambswool and Blue Face Leicester of Ériu Elements Yarn, which is sourced from small family farms in Ireland before making its way to our hands here in Alexandria.
