MINIKIN MANIA!!

First came the Shawl Balls, which became our most popular yarn. Then there were Yarn Bombs, our biggest, baddest, longest ball at just shy of a 1/2 mile of yarn.
Now, we bring you the MINIKIN!

The Minikin is a munchkin of a ball at 25 grams and 107 yards. It's pretty much the cutest gradient you'll ever see
and hold in the palm of your hand.

We have been working on some fun patterns for these little cuties, so far we've added the Mismitts, the Brimfield Scarf and the Countdown Shawl - all designed to work with the Minikins. Other great options are to use them in yoked sweaters, use three for the wonderful Alaska Hat or use twenty for a baby blanket! In addition to being sold individually you will find them
in gift pack or Palette Packs of 9 balls
and 24 balls for the Freia Fanatic
(coming in time for the Holidays!)

Kitty' up!

The Soldotna Crop has to be the sweater of the year. You can't swing a cat in a yarn trade show without hitting a knitter wearing one beautiful version or another.
(Please don't swing any cats or hit knitters,
we love them both and it's not nice.)

We have put together a couple of kit options for this great design in a mix of our gentler gradients with some coordinating solids. Pictured above is our version done in Sprout with Whisper, Ebony and Blue Patina. On our Soldotna Kit page you'll find a second version that we love knit with South Beach, Whisper, Ebony and Coral. Now I've got the itch to make another one,  just have to pick out colors.. If you want to make your own version from our Sport yarn, you can use the yarn quantities guide on the kit page to see how much of each color you will need for your size. See if you can't make just one!

New for FaLL 2019 -
​The Watercolor collection

This season we are launching a whole new concept in gradients. This new family of colors lies somewhere in between a gradient and a semi-solid. If you are looking for a little extra pop in your color, but don't want to go all out with a gradient, and yet want more than a semi-solid, we've got your game.

When I create a new series of colors it's because it's something that I want to knit with. In this case I've fallen back in love with knitting sweaters and larger ready-to-wear. For this I wanted to soften out the gradients without losing the beautiful variety in an ombré, thus the Watercolor Collection was born. These are perfect to use in the body of a sweater, and then you can dial it up by using our Minikins for a pop of gradient in a yoked sweater (for example). The Watercolor Collection really opens up the possibilities of what you can knit with our yarn, making very wearable everyday projects in our softest Merinos the next items on your list!
