Hi
friends, the beautiful Handpainted
Yarns have arrived. Robin and
I met Bjorn & Rex at market this summer, we
were immediately taken with their passion and
creativity. At the age of 5 Bjorn learned
to crochet from his grandmother in Germany, he
later learned handweaving, and knitting.
For over 40 years Bjorn has been creating
exquisite handwoven textiles and knitted pieces
using his handpainted yarns. Now his
passion for color and texture has brought
him to creating yarns for ALL to enjoy!.
All color combinations and handying is done by
Bjorn himself. We hope you enjoy these
beautiful yarns, each bag is kitted by ounce and
colorway, and some have a complimentary pattern.
Use your own imagination and incorporate these
beautiful yarns into your own stash, or combine
them with other yarns to create a truely unique
piece. Of course if you can't come up with
your own idea, Robin and I always have a few
ideas up our sleeves! As a special bonus,
Bjorn included his wonderful SOCK YARN in the
show. It is 65% superwash wool, 25% Nylon,
and 10% Donegal, it knits at 7-8 st. to inch on
1-3 needles, it's 436 yards of incredible color.
We are only 1 of 3
shops in Michigan who carry these yarns, and we
have them here for a limited time, it's worth
checking out. Even if you are like the
rest of us and you have several projects on your
needles, it's a good idea to stash away your
favorite colorway, those current project will
get done before you know it, and these beautiful
yarns will be waiting for you!
We have special trunk
show pricing, so don't miss this opportunity to
have these beautiful fibers.

The Susan Todd Bags are
Here!!!
We have several in the shop. If you
love texture and patterns as much as we do then
you will appreciate the patterns and colors of
these bags by Susan Todd. Susan uses a variety
of re-cycled sweaters in an assortment of colors
and
patterns to create her bags. They are
fully lined
and can be used as knitting bags or just an
everyday carry along. She even has a
messenger bag
made out of re-cycled polo shirts!
Shop early to have the biggest selection to
choose from.
