Yarn yarn yarn

I promised y'all new yarns now didn't I? And I always follow through on my promises.

All are Isis Cotton, and there's a few more I didn't post pictures of. Head on over to the Shop and check them out. Quickly now, before they go bye bye.

New yarns coming soon

I bet y'all thought I'd fallen off the face of the earth. No? You have more faith in me than I do it seems.

Really I've been spinning up a ton of Isis and I dyed that all tonight. Sad thing about cotton yarns is you have to let them sit and "batch" before you can see what the final product will look like. I hate waiting.

I'm also making up facecloths in Isis for sale. These cloths have an amazing texture, and while they are tough enough to handle cleaning dishes I prefer to use them for body parts. Soft and gentle enough to use on a newly born babe as well. They'll be coming in sets of 3 (or more, depends) 1 colored, one colored/solid, and one solid. I'm also making up smaller cloths for applying cleanser or moisturizer. Forget about those cotton ball pads and hunks of TP after this. Just use, wash, and repeat.

Phat Fiber Box - Feb

A little about the samples in the phat Fiber box for February. First we had a sample if Isis, in a limited edition colorway (as in I haven't dyed anymore, lol). Second sample was a handspun rayon 3 ply in a Neapolitan colorway. This is one I can't do again, but I wanted to show my spinning skills to the world. There was also a few promises in there. One I swear I could keep, since they were chocolate. Nummy!

Tieing it all together was a sample of Nile, in it's world debut. Yes, we sent boxes overseas! How bouncy happy shiny is that???

New wools posted!

Yes, we not only carry cotton yarns, but wools as well. I just needed to get them skeined (harder than it sounds) and posted. Dyed on a base of pure merino wool for a whopping 440 yards of knitting pleasure. I call this one Anhk. More bases to come soon.

I'm aslo working on getting my Isis and Nile ready fora MASSIVE dyefest. Have you ever seen the look on a total stranger's face when your mum tells you that you need to dye tonight? It's really funny, when they don't know what you do for a living.

Expect to see some interesting pricing maneuvers on Isis, because I finally figured a way to price it based on the exact yardage.
