We were going to wait until tonight to blog; wanted to describe yesterday's scene with Anna Zilboorg and load some great pics. But we HAD to stop everything and describe Manos' new yarn, COTTON STRIA, which we received from Scott the UPS Guy about fifteen minutes ago! The yarn is extraordinary. Created in 11 brightly colored hues with a texture that has to be seen, we literally CANNOT WAIT to begin knitting the asymmetrical vest featured on the accompanying pattern book. The yarn looks almost curly, mimicking the effect of wool Manos without having to be thick and thin! We should have the pictures on the site soon. But if you are local, COME IN AND SEE THIS STUFF!!!! Bring your size 5 ot 6 needles to get the 18 stitches per 4 inches called for by the patterns. We will be sitting at the table working on it. That second sock will have to wait.
