New yarn launch days are my favorite: it's when we get to finally share all of the wonderfully new yarn love that we've been secretly swooning over for the past few months. And this yarn is no exception, Paragon is a sport weight yarn and it's the holy trinity of yarn for me - it has a little bit of everything that I love in a yarn. First - it's got 50% Mmmmerino, which adds that distinctive bounce and squish that I can't get enough of in a yarn. Secondly - there's 25% Baby Alpaca, which adds a softness and an extra dose of warmth. And the last 25% of Paragon is made up of luxurious silk, which is what adds that incredible sheen. |

The 2016 Pantone colors are simply lovely and we have all the yarn you need to satisfy your color craving. Step 1: Take a moment to browse our yarns to find your favorite Pantone pinks and blues!

Do you love the Oakwood Poncho? It's been one of the best selling patterns from our 2015 Fall Collection, Twist and Tweed. As soon as it came out, the colors of Wool of the Andes Worsted Yarn that the pattern called for began flying off the shelves, so we put together some kits with alternative colorways we think would make equally stunning Oakwood Ponchos. Save some money by buying a project kit, and cast on for a garment you're sure to reach for again and again, this season! The Birdwatcher Kit: |
