New Cotton

We added new yarns to the website today. Pretty yarns for spring and summer. Meet Sun Kissed Speckled from Ella Rae. It is 100% cotton and has 240m on a 100gram ball.

This is Ella Rae's Denim DK. There are 200m on a 100gram ball. It is also 100% cotton.

A young lady was looking through the Churchmouse patterns and I remembered the Sleeveless Slipover. It is perfect for our new yarn.

We have the pattern in the store or you can purchase it on Ravelry.

This style is so versatile, we all wanted different lengths. So here you have it—cropped, hip, tunic, and dress lengths. Or any length you’d like! It’s quite simple to customize your Slipover—for your personal style or body type, as a long layer with side vents, or as a short topper over a tee, to be dressed up or down.

Here is a link to more Denim DK patterns that are available on Ravelry. Both yarns will knit to a true DK tension so there are many, many, many patterns that you can use.

Another pattern that would work for both yarns is the Hipster Shawl.

Speaking of the Hipster. I cast another one on tonight using Rowan's Softyak DK. I'm using colour 247 - Shell. I am flying to Chicago in two weeks to meet with other Rowan stockists. I think I can finish the shawl in time. The yarn is nice to work with. The Cotton/Yak blend feels really good on your hands.

Dad and Lucy made it home safely. I think that dad might have been exceeding the speed limit - he made the trip in great time.
