Missing Newsletter??
I mentioned that we just sent out a newsletter and a few customers wrote that they weren’t receiving it anymore. When I looked they were unsubscribed. I don’t know why this happened. If you missed our last newsletter here is a link to it. If the emails are no longer coming to you please sign up on the website again.
Sale
Over the next week I’m going to share with you some pattern suggestions for yarns that are going on sale. This might help you to make a shopping list before you come.
The colours are amazing! I have knit with Roan and love the yarn. I just wound a skein to knit up another store sample for Saturday.Custom spun, at a local family owned fiber mill near Primrose Yarns, and dyed in house in Primrose’s studio, ROAN DK is an unprecedented blend of American Superwash Merino (White) and Domestic Non Superwash Merino (Brown/Black). The precise percentage of the fiber blend creates a yarn with the best qualities and traits of both fiber types, and none of the worst. It will not grow overtime once blocked, it is suitable for next to skin wear, while still offering the grip for colorwork and steeking, it is a plump 3 ply that is excellent for cable knitting, it takes color like a dream, and it is a non pilling yarn with the proper care.
Custom blended and spun in York, PA.
60% American Superwash Merino
40% Domestic Non Superwash merino
210m/230 yards on a 100gram skein
3ply DK (but knits close to a worsted weight)

Andrea’s Douglas Cardi (pattern purchased on Ravelry) is another great option for Roan. If you are making sizes 2-8 I think you will need 2 skeins of each colour (there are 5 in the cardigan). I quickly did the math but you should check your size to confirm the numbers.
