Welcome 2010




Thought I dropped off the end of the earth? Not likely! Life is busy, busy, busy! 4 days ago I returned from the Winter Trade Show in Long Beach, California. The Holiday was barely over when I was heading to this event. The weather was in the 70s and it was wonderful!

I always like to have at least 1 new garment, an original design, done by me. Inspiration comes from the clothing stores and garment catalogs. This yarn is Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sport. Garment was knit on the Silver Reed SK280 machine. All of the garment is done in various rib combinations.






After spending the last 4 days catching up on shipments out, and freight in, today I was able to upload the new Cascade Pima Tencel yarn page. 9 new colors, including this beautiful jewel aqua tone. This is the new fashion color this year. You will be seeing a lot of this. It is also one of my all time favorites!!

Be sure to check out my clearance page. I have many yarns overstocked!! Today I added Lorna's Laces Revelation, a thick thin wool yarn.

Stay tuned!! New yarns coming in!!
