Good morning lovely knitters!  What a beautiful fall week we've had!  I confess, it has made me cast on FOUR new projects!  Nothing like a chill in the air to inspire NEW projects!

On Thursday this week, the UPS guy popped his head in and said, "Uh, I have a big shipment for you....37 boxes!"  Lol, well, not a single one was yarn!  Can you imagine??  BUT it was our lovely NEW Advent boxes for this year, all pretty and ready to be packed up!  We spent all summer winding and dyeing 3600 mini skeins and they are so happy to be hopping into their little homes now!  Did you pre-order yours yet?  Pattern reveal is Thursday, so don't delay!

The hand-dyed version is here!

And our all yarns welcome normal version is here!

And if you are hoping for one for a gift - share the link!

I just wanted to make sure I told you that Sweater Club starts TOMORROW!  Make sure you pop in and grab your supplies and sign up NOW!  This is the perfect class for you if you want to start your first sweater or if you have a challenge sweater in the queue!

And it is also a good time to mention Espiral and El Gigante if you missed them in our lead up to the crawl!  These gorgeous yarns will make all of your fall and gift knitting a delight!

After all those boxes of boxes, I was happy to get a nice restock of Silky Kid too!  

AND NEW colors of the forever favorite - Moonshine!

And if you have gifting in mind, don't forget our new LAST CHANCE kit - the Cristina hat and cowl!  This kit includes 3 skeins of Ushya and a pattern emailed to you and it is 10% off too!  This is a great gift if you have started to think about the holidays!

Come on in and have a fondle!  Your chilly hands will thank you for it!
