S u r i S i l k DK.
Brand new! This yarn is a brushed Suri alpaca DK with a silk core. It’s wonderfully snuggly like super soft kittens or alpacas 🤷‍♀️

90% Baby Suri Alpaca, 10% silk

246yds per 100g.

The yarn takes the dye well and speckles spread softly.

I made two swatches with size 7 & 8 needles on size 7 the fabric is lovely and holds its shape, on 8 the drape is super nice. Something to play with! This is a great yarn for those who can’t tolerate mohair.

Gauge on 7 is 16sts and 28 rows over 4”
Gauge on 8 is 14/15 sts and 22 rows over 4”.

WPI is 20 and would work as a lovely weft.

Sister to Silky Boucle this is the brushed version of that yarn. It has a very soft muted fluff, and knits up almost like a chenille, a perfect fluff yarn for summer as the silk keeps things cool. This yarn dyes nicely, speckles merge softly into the texture.

70% mulberry silk, 30% fine merino, 219yds per 50g skein

Gauge on US6 is 19 sts and 28 rows. You could play around with the needle size for this yarn.

WPI 15
Works nicely as a textured weft.

Hi Peeps!
We have two new things in stock, which I'll post separately for each.

We now have a superwash merino fabric which is quite unique, It’s a medium to heavy-weight fabric. Each Meter (1.09 yds x 1.53 yds) weighs approximately 11.9ozs. This is sold in 5-meter packs. It sucks up dye like a dream and works so nicely with natural dyes too. You can use it for Shibori, to dye for matching project bags for yarn, for applique, embroidery, blankets, baby slings, the ideas are endless. It's 21.5-micron merino so nice and soft. I've added some pictures of what I've used it for when testing. Just type fabric into the search bar on the website and it will come up.

Hi Peeps,
So..... the second container which was booked in to be delivered at 9 has been delayed 😆 and is now expected sometime this afternoon. If it arrives before 3, we will do an update today, otherwise, it will be tomorrow. You will receive the usual newsletter when the stock has been added to the website. I'll post here too.
Sorry folks

Hi Peeps
I've been working on some new products, including embroidery threads. We will be doing a selection including a cellulose/vegan one, silk, and merino & silk blend. These will be packaged as small hanks, but I wanted to get feedback really if this would be something you would use? I am super excited about these, but need to put the feelers out before we place the order so we have an idea for quantities.
Thoughts?
