Boxes

Today was a day of boxes. Lynn and I packed 14 boxes to go out this morning. Then Nick (Mr. Canpar) brought 2 boxes, Mr. FedEx brought 2 boxes and Mr. Canada Post brought 2 more.

We're hearing a lot about Christmas in July. We have new Uneek Sock Kits in a special Christmas colour. It is limited so don't wait too long.
The Uneek Sock Kit range is hand dyed, full of vibrant colours and soft to the touch. Each kit is individually boxed, and contains two pre-wound matching 50g balls
We have been asked about yarn that looks like Sock Monkeys. We finally have some from Estelle Designs.
The yarn is 50% acrylic, 40% wool and 10% nylon and is worsted weight. 18-20 stitches = 4" in stocking stitch. It is perfect for socks, slippers and kid's sweaters.


We just added more colours of Jawoll Superwash to the store (and I have started adding them to the website). The balls are 50grams - 75% superwash and 25% nylon. These are perfect for colourwork patterns asking for fingering weight yarn. Lynn uses hand dyed yarn for the body of her socks and then the Jawoll Superwash to give the socks some pop in the toes and heels.
Jawoll - the sock wool classic, tried, tested and approved for many years - includes heel re-inforcement yarn to strengthen heels and toes to lengthen the life of your socks!



We have two brand new colours of Erika Knight's Studio Linen.
The Sundowner Cardigan is a great pattern for Studio Linen.

My gardens are loving our weather. Not too hot. A bit of rain.



Now a few hours of knitting. I need to finish Clue #2 of my Perfect Blend MKAL.
