YARNS OF TRANSFORMATION

We did not attend the Winter trade show in California, but the buzz was all about Alchemy Yarns of Transformation. You may recall we received their poncho kits (which flew out of here) and were expecting a sample of their novelty yarns during the summer. Well, bless the wonderful folks at Alchemy who shipped our trunk EARLY. We learned yesterday that it was here and cut our day off SHORT to check out the offerings.

Amazing. Gorgeous. Rich. Breathtaking. Do those suffice? You must see these yarns to believe them. Silks, chenilles, novelties, alpaca, and even bamboo hand-dyed in the most extraordinary colorways. These define the yarns of transformation. Alchemy yarns base their colors on four elements: fire, air, earth and water. But words cannot do these fibers and colors justice.

We received a sample of the following yarns: Silk Purse, Ritual, Synchronicity, Flake, Flora, Bamboo, Japanese Lantern, and Alpaca Pure. Since we received such limited quantities, these will NOT be offered for sale on line and while the pictures here are all from one colorway (for mixing and matching), we received each yarn in a variety of colors that are not pictured.

We encourage you to come in and view these phenomenal yarns. We guess you will not leave empty handed. Whether you want to knit a scarf, socks, or a dramatic shell made of several colors, Alchemy Yarns of Transformation will help you create an unforgettable project.
