Mr. Canpar came today with four boxes of goodies. I didn't have time to go through the magazines but here are the covers. This will be my job before I open tomorrow-after washing the floor.
The spring/summer 2011 Debbie Bliss magazine. All designs in the magazine are new-they are not in other pattern books.
Debbie Bliss Eco Family using Eco Cotton and Eco Baby.
Bella is a new yarn from Debbie.
85% Cotton
10% Silk
5% Cashmere
Double knitting weight
22 stitches = 4" on 4mm needles
$9.95 a ball
There is a beautiful sheen to the yarn. I was afraid that there could be some pilling with the three different fibres mixed together but when I rubbed my fingers over the yarn it looked like I was wrong.
Six vintage inspired patterns using Amalfi, Prima and Rialto 4ply.
There were many bags of yarn too. New colours of
-Prima
-Amalfi
-Eco Cotton
-Eco Baby
-Cashmerino Baby
The latest Noro book was in the box as well. I definitely couldn't go through it because yarn would have come home with me. :)
The new colours of Noro should be arriving later in February.
RUFFLES UPDATE
Ondas
75 Red and 77 Blue arrived.
Triana
49 Black and 47 Turquoise were in the box.
I started packing for my trip on Saturday morning. It doesn't take long to pack when you are only there for two nights. The problem will be what knitting to pack. I don't think my dad is going to let me sit and knit but I have to take some just in case.
It's a good TV night. Idol and finally a new Grey's Anatomy. I will be knitting-I don't see my chiropractor until next Wednesday so she won't know. :)
