It's time again for a new and exciting color combination to inspire a new and exciting knitting/crochet project! This week Nancy put together this luscious grouping of spring color all from Noro. (I have to confess that I have a HUGE weakness for anything from Noro.) The multi colored tweed is Noro Tidiori, 60% rayon, 35% nylon, 5% cashmere, 100% beautiful. Nancy did a great job finding a companion to each colorway in Cash Iroha, 40% silk, 30% lamb's wool, 20% cashmere, 10% nylon. Be sure to click on the picture to see the image larger. The colors are so vivid that you just have to get a good look. I also have it on good authority that a large shipment of new spring/summer fiber from Noro just came in. More on that in a future post.
This week we have not one color combination, but two! Cindy, the color wizard, came up with this regal collection using the gold Quest as inspiration. We only have a couple of skeins of the Quest in stock, so if you like what you see, come in and make it yours.
Winter has spent this week reminding us that we haven't seen the last of her yet. There is nothing like a fiber project on a cold, snowy day. Hats, scarves, and mittens are quick knits and there will still be many more days where their warming comfort will be necessary. Come in and let us help you pick out something to warm the heart of someone you love. (Valentine's Day is a week away!)
Wow! What GREAT color selections...again = BRAVO!
Yes, winter is STILL here...Pffft! Need some warmth from the yarnworks we masterfully create.
OK, back to the color selections, I just thought of something...I see the Royal Colors as a cape of some sort, or maybe I've just been watching too many wizard and Medieval-type flicks. Makes me want to ZAP the cold AWAY or command that springtime gets here tout de suite! Ha!
I'll see you folks on Saturday morning, with Crochet hook and yarn in tow.
