Party Pack

We have fun new kits coming from SweetGeorgia and should see them by the middle of February.

Party of Fives in Party Pack size! Made available by popular demand, exclusive colourways from our mini-skein sets are now available in full skeins for a limited time. With the additional yardage, you can knit that gradient tee, cardigan or sweater that you’ve always wanted. 

80% superwash merino wool, 20% nylon 

5 skeins, each 425 yards / 388 m per 4 oz / 115g skein 

A perfect blend of warmth and strength to make a hardwearing sock yarn that can stand up to your affection and abuse. Tough Love Sock is our best-selling yarn and knits up beautifully into fine-gauge sweaters, small shawls, as well as socks! Spun from 80% superwash and super soft merino and 20% nylon, this 3-ply yarn is so versatile — knit it firmly for hard wearing socks, knit it loosely for drapey shawls, or knit it doubled for a great worsted weight substitute. Suggested gauge for sock knitting: US 0-1 (2-2.25mm) | 8 sts/1 

There are 6 different combinations coming - they are all beautiful.

The kit would be amazing for Stephen West's Chevron Shenanigans.

I knit the shawl and would definitely make it again.

Andrea Mowry's So Faded is another project for the kit.

This sweater sums up my ideal raglan pullover: worked from the top down, completely seamless, and just a little bit of texture to make it fit into a more modern wardrobe! Adjust the length of the sleeves and the body easily to fit your personal style!

Fading Point is another great option for the kit. This is my shawl and I highly recommend the pattern. I love wearing this shawl.

Fading Point is constructed from both ends towards the centre, and then both pieces are connected with triangles to achieve a seamless rectangle. 

The pattern is completely different than its predecessor: It has sections where you blend 2 colors together and then sections with lace. The instructions are WRITTEN AND CHARTED.

Picking a colour is easy - I'm going with the first kit I showed. Picking a pattern isn't as easy - there are too many choices.

The new colours of Noro Akari arrived today. They are totally different than I thought but that's not a bad thing. I am sending Lynda the top two colours for a Nightshift. I can't wait to see how the colours play - I am totally into greens right now. Purple and green together is a bonus.
