Going to be a busy day on the computer today. 35 new patterns and 3 new yarn ranges to add to the website (that doesn't include the new ones I accidently ordered on Wednesday too).

Every moth I say to myself "that's it, we are full, no more yarns". Then the evil reps tempt me with new things and somehow I manage to find space for them.

Oh the hardships of owning a wool shop

Brand new for this year.

Fed up with chocolate calendars or just not having one at all?

Then why not have one of our stitch marker calendars instead.

24 different charm stitch markers, one for each day.
There is a mix of Christmas, non Christmas, enamel, 3D, metal and bead.

These are £20 each and will be available from Thursday onwards.

All places taken now. Thank you xx

I have a favour to ask.
I'm looking for some testers - it can be knit or crochet and you pick the mini project (baby garment, scarf gloves, hat etc)

I have the opportunity to have a new range but I am on the fence with this one. It is a pure wool range (pure wool hasn't sold well for us in the past) the difference with this one is the price. Instead of being £5.50 + for 50g like most pure wool yarns are, including the one we currently stock these will only be £3.80 for 50g.

I need honest opinions on the feel of it and would the price difference be enough to make you occasionally want to knit in real wool.

So what I need are
*people that usually only use acrylic
*people that can knit/crochet up something by the end of the month (you keep the item, I just want to know your honest opinions on working with it)

You will get 100g free white Dk

Please pop your name in below and I will comment against your name if you are one of the first 4.

Just to let my lovely customers know Isle of Wool will be closed tomorrow. My lovely child decided so share her germs so I feel rotten and just need a day to recuperate (why is it that they are happy to share their germs but not their sweets! lol

I'm sorry for the inconvenience and I will see you all on Tuesday

This one is a real bargain. The range only has 8 colours but more are bring developed. The cygnet Festival has the exact feel of Jewelspun.

Ours is currently only at £8 simply because there is a printing fault on the label.
