Update preview: May 2016
Just a quick preview of what will be in today's update, which goes up at http://www.edencottageyarns.com at 12 noon UK time. Firstly, we've not been able to get our superwash wool/nylon blend, Tempo 4ply, for absolutely ages, but finally it is back. Here's one of each colour: There's everybody's favourite: Titus 4ply. Here's one of each colour: Another one that's returned after not being available for a while is Pendle 4ply, which is soft, squidgy merino. It's technically machine washable, though I would really recommend that you try it. Here's one of each colour: I've also done a limited quantity...
A few neutrals
I just thought I'd share a few of my neutrals with you (since noticing I have most of them in stock for a change).. Top: Linen and Natural Second row down: Whispering Grass and Driftwood Third row down: Compost, Bark and Stone Bottom row: Silver Birch, Slate, Ash and Steel That's all! Thankyou for your patience whilst we've been away at Edinburgh Yarn Festival which was quickly followed by a trip to a&e, causing us to be out of action for about ten days. We'll be posting last week's orders on Tuesday.

It's still cold, but the bulbs are coming up, and the days are longer and lighter.. So I thought today's little yarn inspiration gallery should be pale colours. Here you go: The colours are (L-R): Top - Blossom Row 2 - Natural and Misty Woods Row 3 - Ice, Apricot Tulip and Air Bottom - Geum, Dahlia, Spring Buds, and Dianthus There's a handy search function on the ECY website: The search results show up as you type: Press 'return' to get this view: Just click on the titles for more yarn info.

From left to right (above) they are: Whitfell Chunky in Damson; Malham DK in Salvia; Derwent 4ply in Salvia; Tempo DK in Buddleja; Bowland DK in Buddleja; Milburn 4ply skein in Damson; Milburn 4ply ball in Damson; and Theseus Lace in Salvia. And of course, they're all over at the ECY website. Or at least they are until they sell out. Then they may or may not be. ...
