Fall yarns are starting to arrive in space, and we are ready to be inspired. We are especially excited about a few unique fibres that we are receiving – the first to land is a llama yarn!

Berroco Talara is 100% baby llama yarn, that is wonderfully soft and easy to work with. With a bouncy chainette texture, Talara is comfortable to wear next to the skin, and perfect for sweaters and accessories. Berroco has designed a whole range of lovely garments for Talara, and we are ready to cast on.

Stop in and check out the trunk show! We have all of these patterns in space right now.
