Cheap Thrills

Mr. Canada Post brought in a box from JUL this morning. We have the new Filigree Stitch Marker Set with Row Counter.
Handmade Fair Trade in Indonesia 
White Brass 
6.25mm inside diameter - fits US10 Needles 
11mm outside diameter 
There are three different filigree designs - two markers of each pattern - making up this set of five filigree stitch markers and one filigree row marker.  Cast in white brass and then hand-finished and fabricated, these lovely stitch markers are a gorgeous addition to your collection of beautiful tools.  Each set comes in a round metal tin with a top to keep the set together.

We also received some Screw-In Closures








I was here very early this morning (8am) to meet with the sales rep for Noro. We have a few new yarns coming now and then more for spring. I'm excited about Tennen which should be here in a few weeks. The yarn is 50% wool, 25% silk, 25% alpaca. The colours are very muted.
Tennen, meaning natural, is Noro’s tonally-flecked DK/Aran yarn blending together wool, silk and soft alpaca. This combination has created an individual style of naturally inspired yarn suitable for a wide range of garments.






Meet Bad Apple. One of the new colourways coming from Primrose Yarn Co. The box is leaving Primrose today. I will be able to start tracking it tomorrow and I hope to see it early next week.
I can't wait to meet Cheap Thrills :)
