Good morning lovely knitters!  We are BACK!  We had an amazing trip to Scotland and besides a little re-entry cold, we arrived refreshed and ready for FALL!  We missed you guys tons and are so grateful to Lisa and Kim for helping you all out while we were gone!  :)

Some AMAZING yarns arrived while we were gone!

First - we got a restock of Making Tracks!  This one rarely lasts long - especially if you want sweater quantities - so grab it quick!

We also have this gorgeous pattern for Making Tracks - Junction 14.

This isn't a hard set, but it does include several useful to know skills, so we have a class for it this fall also!

Next we got Juniper Moon Farm Fairy Floss.  This stuff is SO FUN!  HUGE balls of bulky weight.  Now - you know me - I will get in a snit about gauge recommendations.  This yarn claims to be a super bulky - to knit on a 11 to 17.  No.  No.  Nope.  It could be a regular bulky - maybe UP to a size 11, but honestly, it is going to be best on a 9-10.5.  It is light and lofty and will make some gorgeous knits and crochets!

We also have a NEW featured pattern!  This month - get our Greenhouse Scarf pattern for free when you order 1 skein of our one-of-a-kind Reclaimed Cashmere!

Also - the Yarn Crawl is coming up!!  Make sure your calendar is marked for September 26-29!  We're going to have SO much fun in store!

And - just to mention - we still have pins!  So, if your friends are jealous of your awesome Cat Ladies for Kamala pins - give them a treat and get one for them!  :)

And - just one more little mention - we're releasing a NEW sweater pattern on Monday!  Everyone who has seen it wants to make it!  It is so quick, comfy and fun - so make sure you stay tuned on Monday!

I think that's it for today.  I know there's more - it has been a while, but I don't want to overwhelm you with first email back!  I hope to see you all today!
