Yey for grey!

Happy news! The Whitfell DK in Steel is finally here. We have to label it all, and then the pre-ordered yarn will go out tomorrow morning..    ..The rest of the remaining yarn will be in Sunday's update at 12 noon. I have a very limited quantity, and I'm not sure how long it'll take to get more.     So.. I'd better crack on with the labelling!

Yarndale news

5th of July Update Preview (Part 1)

On Sunday, we have a lovely big update for you, hopefully at 2pm UK time, assuming I've found a 3G signal at some point before that!  There's loads of stuff included, and I won't go through it all, but not pictured here are Original Stripe Quadratic kits, and Aisling kits in Titus 4ply in the two original colour combinations - Rambling Rose/Ice and Whispering Grass/Hibiscus. As always, numbers are very limited. They'll be in the kits section of the website. I will show you the flock though - and it's not just sheep! There are Herdwick ewes, tups, and LAMBS!...
