Our fall order arrived from CASCADE yesterday and it is, in a word, YUMMY!!!! Lots of BABY ALPACA, the softest alpaca of them all, in both LIGHT WORSTED and CHUNKY WEIGHTS, as well as our favorite WOOL/SILK blend in both the weights as well. We have the uber-popular RUSTIC back in stock—it was one of our best sellers last year and is a gorgeous wool/linen blend in an array of colors. Also in, ECO WOOL in the natural tones; this chunky yarn is perfect for many of the patterns shown in the fall INTERWEAVE KNITS, which emphasizes natural designs and tones. We strive to offer our customers a blend of trends and classics—so look to us for a wide selection of the jewel tones, brignts, AND muted naturals this season. And you can always look to CASCADE for great value. Their yarns provide excellent yardage at a modest price. We have perused the www.cascadeyarn.com website for free patterns and encourage you to do the same to make use of these wonderful yarns:

Also in, FINALLY, a WASHABLE CHUNKY WEIGHT YARN. We looked for this literally for years. GEDIFRA brought out a pure MERINO that knits at 3.5 stitches to the inch. We bought lots. And we selected both primary colors great for kidswear as well as more sophisticated tones for grown-ups.
