Sally's a Giver

Our fall yarns are arriving already!  Hard to believe, but true.  Since Sally is such a generous yarn shop owner, she's been putting new things on the shelves for the sale this weekend.

One of our favorites, Hillside Linen, has been restocked in your favorite lovely colors.


Sadly, this yarn is being discontinued, so get while it's here.  This will be our last batch.  I used this to make one of our most popular shop samples, A Little Ruffle scarf from Sadie & Oliver.


This sample has been in the shop for almost two years, and it still looks great.

Baby Llama Glow is back, too.  See the sparkles?  So pretty and subtle.  I think they look like snowflakes.


New this fall, Plymouth DK Merino Superwash.  Lots of colors, machine-washable, and very nicely-priced.


Also new from Plymouth, Stiletto, a self-striping sock yarn with sparkles.

Check out the sample sock.

I'm thinking legwarmers for the little (and big?) girls in my life.

And for even more bling, Juli.  The construction of this yarn is similar to that of Rowan Lima and Berroco Flicker, but at a larger gauge for even more instant sparkle gratification.

You could crank out a hat in a few short hours.

Okay, now you have even more goodies to consider this weekend.  Be sure to thank Sally!
