Unicorn Tails

The madelinetosh order that I did at TNNA will be going into production at the beginning of July. It should be arriving in Ancaster at the beginning of August. I am very excited.

There will be new colours of Unicorn Tails. If you aren't familiar with Unicorn Tails, they are mini skeins (47m) of merino light. These are perfect for adding pops of colours into your knitting.

Take a look at Solaris from Melanie Berg.
Take it All is another great use of Unicorn Tails.
My Summer Song is an interesting shawl.

Black Widow
Death by Elocution
Joshua Tree
Magic Lantern
Mockingjay
Phantasm
Sabine Optic
Scout Wash
Translation

The rest of the Unicorn Tails colours will be
Antique Lace
Antler
Arctic
Blood Runs Cold
Brass
Bronze Age
Celadon
Charcoal
Coquette-Deux
Cousteau
Firewood
Glazed Pecan
Ink
Onyx
Silver Fox
Spectrum
Whiskey Barrel

We still have a few skeins of colours that are discontinued.

We knit Unicorn Stripes (pattern purchased on Ravelry) with the original set of Unicorn Tails. Playing with new colours to make it again will be fun.
This fun pattern lets your create a tube scarf or cowl. You decide!


Another fun project is Stephen West's Unicorn Parallelograms.
Choose 20 colors of fingering weight yarn like Madelinetosh Unicorn Tails and knit this easy biased scarf. The garter stitch fabric makes this project ideal for on-the-go knitting. 
Just as I was leaving the store I remembered that we still have one kit for Unicorn Stripes in the original colours. Hurry, it won't last long.
