close knit: the neighborhood yarn shop
Back in February, I showed you the sweet little skeins of Bare Naked Wools Stone Soup Fingering that we started carrying. We all loved it so much, that we decided to bring in the the larger skeins for you. These beautiful skeins are 450 yards of all kinds of gorgeous fibers blended together to create a stunning yarn.
The knitted fabric is something I really love...lovely stitch definition and such a nice hand. It's almost flannely, if that makes any sense. We have a sample of Trevi knitted up in the Stone Soup Fingering, and it has such nice drape and weight without being too much.
You'll just have to stop in to see for yourself. This is a great yarn, and we are so happy to be able to offer it up in these big beautiful skeins!
You know we love the spectacular hand-dyed yarns and crazy cool textures, but sometimes we just want to keep it simple. Enter Bare Naked Wools. This is purely lovely yarn.
As they state on their website: "Our yarns create garments that are soft and luxurious. No chemicals,
dyes, or harsh processing create durable fabrics that showcase the
integrity of each fiber. Our yarns come from animals that are loved and
doted on and mills that understand and appreciate their materials." It doesn't really get much better than that!
We are currently stocking the five natural shades of Stone Soup Fingering you see up above and five shades of Stone Soup DK seen below. These yarns are blends of all kinds of natural fibers, mostly wool and alpaca, with little neps and noils for some lovely rustic texture. The knitted fabric has such a soft hand, almost flannel-like.
This yarn cables beautifully, and it's nice and sticky for colorwork. Perfect for accessories, garments, blankets...as long as you like neutrals, you'll love these Bare Naked Wools!
