Okay, this is pretty cool. We've been begging Blue Sky Fibers for a red in Woolstok Tweed for literal years, and they're giving us TWO! There are six other new colors as well, and all of them should be arriving late next week. I'll make sure to put something up when they're here, too.

They've also launched a whole new line of yarn: Woolstok Tweed Light, tweedy versions of 22 Woolstok Light colors. Should we stock Woolstok Tweed Light? Go here to browse the new colors and then come back and tell us what you think. https://blueskyfibers.com/product/woolstok-tweed-light/

Now, the bad news--the price of Woolstok Tweed is going up. Such things are inevitable, but you can shop all our in-stock WT here at the old price until our new stock arrives: https://close-knit-yarn-cooperative.shoplightspeed.com/woolstok-tweed.html

It's Work-in-Progress Wednesday! I've just started a new to me pattern and while it looks like the beginning of a triangle shawl now, it's going to turn into something else. Want to guess what this triangle will become? I'm using some of my own handspun (and I did put some more in the shop recently).

If you're a spinner (or spinning-curious) and want to hang out with other spinners, join us for Spin In Public day Saturday 10-2 in front of Samizdat.

It's Work-in-Progress Wednesday! I'm working on a cowl test knit for Shanalines Designs. I'm knitting the body using fi*****ng weight handspun (some of you all may recognize it from the fair this year), and I just plied up some fleece for a contrast color. Once the pattern comes out, if you want to make your own and don't have handspun, check out Cascade 220 sport wave for the main color and a solid for the contrast (one skein of each unless you're looking for a giant cowl).

It's Finished Object Friday! I've finished another washcloth, this one in handspun cotton. Washcloths are super forgiving when it comes to learning something new, whether it's how to spin cotton or a new technique. Check out Uni Cotton if you want some washcloth yarn of your own: https://close-knit-yarn-cooperative.shoplightspeed.com/uni-cotton.html
