April's "Teaser"

A semi-solid that is a bit "out of the box" this month in that it's not a traditional one colour tonal semi-solid.

I like to mix it up a little so I hope you enjoy this colourway too...it will knit up in a really fun way!

All packages are in the mail already...woot!

March's "Spoiler"

I'm a bit behind in posting so here we go with April's colourway Wine Valley.  This one was painted on Sturdy Sock which is made up of 75% superwash merino/25% nylon.  To achieve this colourway, I had to dye the yarns twice for saturation to be a bit deeper.  I love me some reds!  Enjoy!

February's "Spoiler"

Painted on 100% superwash merino, this colourway is named Esmeraldus. I chose green for this month because Spring seemed to have already been arriving and not to mention, St. Patrick's day was quickly approaching so I thought it'd be fun to do a spring-themed colourway. Enjoy!

January's "Spoiler"

I really enjoyed painting this colourway for everyone!  Browns happen to be one of my favourites up there with red so anything with brown in it makes my heart sing too.  Hope you're enjoying this one!  If anyone wants an extra skein, I happen to have a couple left over - if you'd like to combine shipping with your next shipment, just let me know so I can do a special order for you.

Enjoy!

December's "Spoiler"

This month's colourway is a nice soft yellow with slight hints of light orange in it. I wanted to do something cheery for December since it's a winter month. Enjoy and Happy New Year everyone!

December's "Teaser"

This month I can't even hint at the colour because if I do, it'll just totally give it away...LOL So although this doesn't show much it does show the lovely texture of the yarn. I know! The B&W teasers are much worse than the ones that hint at colour but this month, oh gosh, I can't or there will be no surprise at all. Enjoy!

November's "Teaser"

It's time for another mailing! This month's base yarn is a bit of a surprise and I hope everyone enjoys it :) It's imported from the UK and quite lovely. The colourway is a play on similar tones and all colours were applied using the semi-solid technique. These yarns should knit up in an interesting way for everyone! Have fun!

October's "Spoiler"

This month's spoiler and handpainted on our BFL Nylon sock yarn made of 80% superwash BFL and 20% nylon. I love this yarn for its durability as it should make up some lovely hard-wearing socks. This colourway is called Burnt Umber and Mr. Zen said it reminded him of Fall leaves. Enjoy everyone!

October's "Teaser"

A few of you have received your yarns already and I just remembered to get this up on the blog...LOL This is a lovely BFL Nylon sock yarn (imported from the UK) that is sure to be hard wearing if you decide on socks. I like how the colours come out slightly rustic on this base yarn. My DH said this colourway reminded him of Fall leaves. Enjoy!

September's "Spoiler"

You really really have to look closely at this one or it looks like it's a black semi-solid...well, not quite! Look at it up close and under the light if you're a clubber - you'll see the hints of another colour underneath! Enjoy!

September's "Teaser"

Here we go! It's time to mail out yet another semi-solid...woot! And this one is so deceiving I'm giggling...sure does look like a solid black from the teaser doesn't it? You may need to look at this one closely when you get the yarn and even under light to pick up the hidden nuances of the colourway. That's all I'm sayin'! Enjoy :)
