Good morning lovely knitters! And happy spring! We've been getting our spring yarn in and IT. IS. DELICIOUS!

The newest to arrive, just this week, is Noro Sonata Shima! Oh my....this yarn! I've love Sonata for so long that this changey addition to the line-up is MORE than welcome! Come in to paw its silky deliciousness in person, or check it out here!

In more Sonata news, we also get NEW colors of regular Sonata. The green is so drool worthy with amazing teal and blue undertones. We tried hard not to drool directly on it!

That means we also put together some NEW colorsets for our gorgeous Choice Shawl (the pictured shawl on the post)!

And as we've been making space for new things, there are few NEW markdowns in the sale bin! Check them out - they won't last long!

This is also the very last week for our delightful and gorgeous Stollen Clouds Shawl to be the featured pattern! Get it before the month ends and you'll end up with 2 awesome patterns instead of just one!

I hope to see you today! It may be overcast, but I can feel that spring in the air, making me want to cast on a NEW amazing project with some of these springy yarns!
