Good morning lovely knitters!  It looks like we are at another time change weekend.  Remember when we all thought this was done?  Anywho - don't forget to change your clocks!  At least it will be light later - so there's some bright side!

This week, we brought in 2 new colorways of delightful DUO!!  There will be more of both of these colors (plying just takes time) so if you need more than is available, drop me a note and I make sure to prioritize that color this weekend.  I'm also working on a NEW hat pattern for Duo and it is awesome!!  You're going to love it!

And we've got a NEW springy yarn, perfect for these springy temps - check out the gorgeous Louisa Harding Provence below!  This is a great yarn for springy short sleeve or sleeveless tops and scarves and shawls too!

As I mentioned last week, we're going to be hosting a fun extended hours day on March 23rd for the Knit for Food knit-a-thon! This week only, when contribute - and email me your receipt, I'll be so happy to send you any of our patterns for FREE as a thank you!

Our mini-skeins of Kraken Lite are gone, but we have a NEW mini-skein giveaway!  This one is a sparkly version of Solea Light!  Get yourself a mini-skein, swatch it up and save that little label because there is a discount code on it for your first order of Solea Sparkle!

We had a fun podcast on Monday! Talking about worsted weight yarns in between cat antics! Check it out! There might also be a sneak peak of some upcoming patterns in there!  We're ramping up for an awesome giveaway of a Lykke needle set, so make sure you stay tuned!

Our featured pattern this month is the first pattern that I ever had published - reworked and made even more delightful for Kraken! Tua Cha! These twisty cabled fingerless gloves are made with just one skein of Kraken and this month only, the pattern will appear in your order confirmation for FREE when you buy one skein of Kraken!

I hope to see you today!
