SoleMates

Our order from Freia arrived this afternoon. I was supposed to be out of the store early but waited for Mr. UPS. I’m glad I did.

The new SoleMates kits look great! We are the first store to get the kits. 

You're not seeing double! These little guys are tracked all through production from start to finish to ensure each pair stays with it's mate - giving you the pair of perfectly identical SoleMates! These are dyed on a Shaniko Merino Superwash base that just gets softer with each wash - and they are already soft to begin with. You will ooh and ahh when you have these on your feet. 

SUPER soft - US Merino - ethically raised - minimally processed, just enough to make them machine washable and dryable - identical (we're calling them 'Sole-Mates' get it?) - great yardage (460yds total/230yds per ball) and yeah, I said soft, right? 

I have the kits online but didn’t have time to get pictures of the individual kits.

Lynn is working on her socks - I brought her a kit home from the knitting show in Chicago. It is her first pair of toe up socks - we’ll get pictures this week.
These are the new colours on Minikins. I will try to get these online tomorrow.



Tonight was our Fantasy Football draft (which is why the website didn’t get updated). This year Beth and I have our own teams. This could get tense. Beth’s team received a B and mine a C.👿

Lovely! And, so good to have identical balls of yarn - perfect for making both socks at the same time. :)
