New This Week
Each week I will post here a quick review of what is new at the shop so you can get a quick update of new inventory, models, project ideas, events or classes scheduled, with links from each if you'd like to explore them in more detail.
Haunui Cotton has arrived....
One of the new fall yarns by Noro is the Haunui Cotton. This 60% woo/40% cotton blend of fibers from down under (the wool is from the unique flock in New Zealand and the cotton from Australia) is recommended knit at 5 sts/inch on a US 7. There is some nice pattern support in the Noro Magazine Fall 2023. which also arrived this week. Check out the colors and yarn details thru the link above!
Fiber Order Arrived...
We made up some new mixed fiber packs for the upcoming festive seasons - Halloween and Christmas!
​
And we restocked our Needle Felted Pumpkin/Jack-O-Lantern kits. Each kit has 2 needles, instructions and the fiber to needle several pumpkins or Jack-o-lanterns to decorate your home. Some customers in the past have also used these kits to create a cornucopia centerpiece for their Thanksgiving table.
You can find the mixed bags of fiber here and the Needle Felted Pumpkin Kits here,where I also had a chance to add the 3-D needle felting kits to the Needle Felting Kits page this week. This new site is a work in progress....which is where my knitting projects have stood this summer as I shibori'd and naturally dyed the summer away! Back to knitting this week....
New Needle Felting Kit...
A new and festive design for the holidays arrived this week - Winter Garden, featuring poinsettias. Two versions - a blue border and a maroon border.
I am in the process (11.35 am) of adding a new page to the website for needle felting kits - both 3-D/sculptural and tapestry versions.
Check all these kits out here! If it isn't working yet, it should be by later this afternoon!
