Summertime knitting is in full swing! The temps are rising and so are our hopes that this season will be one full of iced tea, juicy watermelon, and relaxing knits.
What better way to celebrate the warmer season than by draping a colorful shawl of butterflies across your shoulders? Or by getting your hands on our brand new colors of ultra-luxe silk yarn? Or ultra-sweet candy themed sock yarn? You get the idea.
New Yarns

Indulge your heart’s desire for ultra-luxe lightweight sweaters, socks, and accessories.
Don’t miss your chance – much like that secret candy stash in your craft room, these lovely limited-edition colors won’t last forever!
