Shop Update

I’ll be ready for a decent sized shop update next Saturday, August 9th
at 9:00am (ish).

Here’s what I’ve got for ya’ll:

New colors!! I have at least 6 new tinted/layered solids and will have
a couple variegated colorways too. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that
the camera can pick up the subtleties of some of the additional ones
I’ve been brewing up, cause there may be more even colors to offer in
this go-round… Oh, and I’ll have Seattle Mariner’s yarn back in stock!

The DK weight is finally in the dyepots. This is a dense DK weight -
same tight twist as the Artisan Sock, but knits up to 5-7 sts per
inch. I think it could be subbed into patterns that call for a light
worsted weight too - but you gotta swatch, swatch, swatch!! The DK
weight is offered in 275 yard skeins for $23. For now it's only
available in tinted/layered solids.

Merino-Soy Fingering weight is back! I’ve been dyeing up lots of this in the
semi-solids/layered solids. Seriously, I don’t know why I haven't been
dyeing this base more often - it’s so soft and lovely. 440 yards - $24

Violeta fingerless glove kits AND lacy baby sock kits in lots of colors will be stocked.

Baby sock in "Equinox"

AND... a knotty/naughty skein sale! I've been stockpiling skeins for a
while that have a knot or flub in them - some great savings if you
don't mind a knot! Lots of colors to choose from, but of course,
quantities are limited.

I'll be updating/backfilling the shop and dyeing all weekend as I
anticipate some of the new colors will move quickly. Keep an eye on
the "sold" items and if there is a colorway that has cleared out that
you want, just "convo" me through etsy and I'll get it dyed up for
you. It may delay the shipping of your order for a few days, but will
save on you $$ on shipping costs. (Shipping is $4.75 for any size
order...)

See you Saturday!
