We have a large selection of two great summer lace yarns by Schaeffer ! Audrey (50% merino 50% silk), and Andrea (100% silk).

So much has been going on! We now have a new counter to better serve you, and have moved many things around in the store. We also are very excited to now carry Christel Seyfarth kits from Denmark! They are reminiscent of Hanne Faulkenberg, but use magic ball fair isle in at least 16 colors! Check them out yourself at http://www.christel-seyfarth.dk/christel-seyfarth/Gallery.html .
We also have the latest Isager Amimono Spring 2011 Collection and all the yarns used in the booklet! We love the Danish yarns; Jan and Natalie were two of eight Americans invited to visit Marianne Isager herself at her studio in Denmark this past July for a 3-day intensive knitting workshop! It was great fun; we reviewed all the knitting techniques found in all the Isager patterns, and got to see the new patterns coming out within the next year or two.
